New Mid-Year KNEC KCSE Examinations 2025

The Kenya National Examination Council (KNEC) will introduce a mid-year series of the Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (KCSE) examination which will be administered in July every year.

This was intimated by Education Cabinet Secretary (CS) Julius Migos on Thursday, noting that this targets candidates wishing to repeat their exam, or those who missed it due to unavoidable circumstances.

“Adult candidates may also consider registering for the July KCSE series examination,” he said while releasing the 2024 KCSE results.

2024 (January 2025) KCSE Distribution of Grades Nationally

In a nutshell:

1,693 KCSE 2024 candidates record straight As as 48,333 get E

The number of learners who scored mean grade A in the 2024 Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (KCSE) examination improved from 1,216 in 2023 to 1,693 in 2024, indicating a steady rise of top scorers countrywide.

Speaking during the release of the 2024 KCSE results, Education Cabinet Secretary Migos Ogamba commended the learners and attributed the performance to the new grading system that was implemented in 2023.

In the new system, only two mandatory subjects; Mathematics and one language (either English, Kiswahili or Kenya Sign Language) are used to compute the mean grade as compared to the previous structure that considered five subjects across three cluster groups.

He added that the number of candidates with direct university entry qualifications (grade C+ and above) rose to 246,391 (25.53 per cent) compared to 201,133 (22.27 per cent) in 2023.

Further, the number of candidates with grade C- is 476,889 (49.41 per cent) compared to 401,216 (44.2 per cent) in 2023.

Those who attained a D+ and above were 605,774 (62.76 per cent) compared to 526,222 (58.22 per cent) in the previous examinations.

Candidates who scored a mean grade E were 48,333; comprising 20,112 women and 28,221 men.

In addition, 840 candidates’ results were cancelled after they engaged in exam irregularities. A further 2,829 candidates’ results were withheld for suspicion of irregularities pending completion of investigations within 30 days.

CS Ogamba confirmed that disciplinary action will be taken on 91 contracted professionals and teachers who aided in irregularities.

To get your individual results, access the official Knec portal at Knec.ac.ke online using the results.knec.ac.ke and fill your full index number followed by your full name then hit the “View Results” button.

Candidates and parents are therefore urged to exercise patience as Knec works towards resolving this issue. Once the online portal is fixed, individual candidate results will be access instantly.

Tough Measures for KCSE 2024 Candidates as Knec Casts Net for Malpractice

The Kenya National Examinations Council, KNEC, has upgraded its game, bringing into play several new more stringent measures to curb cheating. In case you missed out, get a quick glimpse of these new policies below:

Among the measures are the personalization of the examination papers to ensure each is unique to a candidate, the rotation of supervisors; as well as a ban on phones for the invigilators, centre managers and candidates during exams.

The 2024 Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (KCSE) will be administered from October 22 to November 22, 2024, while the Kenya Primary School Education Assessment (KPSEA) and Kenya Intermediate Level Education Assessment (KILEA) will be held from October 28 to November 1, 2024.

One of the key innovations is the personalization of KCSE question papers for each candidate.

According to Knec, this move is designed to prevent cheating by ensuring that each candidate’s exam paper is unique.

Knec CEO David Njengere emphasized that this measure will also enhance the security of the exams by anonymizing the answer scripts during marking, thereby reducing the chances of malpractice and ensuring fairness in the grading process.

This means that the examiners won’t be able to identify the owner of the script, as it will only contain a signature.

“This measure is expected to boost exam security by anonymizing answer scripts during the marking process. The KCSE question papers will be personalized for every candidate. This will help anonymise the answer scripts during marking. More details on this innovation will be shared with supervisors and invigilators during the Sub- County briefing sessions,” said Dr Njengere.

The new system aims to streamline the marking of the 2024 KCSE exams, set to be taken by 965,501 candidates across 10,755 centers, an increase from 903,260 in 2023.

Additionally, Knec will administer the KPSEA to 1,313,913 candidates in 32,573 centers, bringing the total number of candidates for national exams to over 2.27 million. Knec has also revised the deployment of security officers.

For the KPSEA exams, security personnel will now only be involved in the distribution and collection of exam materials.

However, the standard practice of deploying at least two security officers to each KCSE examination center will continue.

Another significant change concerns the use of mobile phones during exams. All staff involved in exam administration, such as supervisors, invigilators, and center managers, will now be required to secure their mobile phones in lockable desks, monitored by security officers.

This step, Knec said, is intended to minimize any potential misconduct and ensure the integrity of the examination process.

“No phones will be allowed during the opening of the exam papers or while the exams are in progress. Phones will be secured in local desks under the supervision of a security officer, with the center holding the key,” said Dr Njegere.

Ms Antonina Lentoijoni, the Director Staffing, Teacher Service Commission (TSC), emphasised that supervisors and invigilators will not be deployed to examination centers where they have vested interests. Instead, they will be required to declare any affiliations with the centers where they will be assigned.

“They will be required to declare any affiliations with the examination centers where they will be assigned,” said Ms Lentoijoni
Ms Lentoijoni said that they have introduced a rotation system for KCSE supervisors.

Each supervisor will serve at an examination center for only one week before being reassigned.

This strategy is designed to minimize familiarity with the centers and further enhance examination security.

“All KCSE supervisors will be required to serve for only one week at any examination center. They will keep rotating every week. I am confident that even after we have nominated them, none of them will know the centers they will be assigned to. They will be supervised as we sit here today,” said Ms Lentoijoni.

Education Cabinet Secretary Julius Ogamba highlighted that KNEC has expanded the number of distribution centers for KCSE materials by adding 41 new centers which sums up otal to 617, ensuring a smoother and more efficient distribution of exam papers nationwide.

“When we compromise our interventions, we compromise the standards of our certificates, all of us, and that affects our economy, I wish to assure you that the country that the challenges experienced in 2023 in the collection of examination materials for the KCSE twice a day have been addressed by introducing an extra 41 containers,” said Mr Ogamba.

Further, the CS issued a stern warning regarding examination malpractices, urging all candidates, managers, and supervisors to strictly comply with the laid-down examination regulations, cautioning that failure to do so would result in facing “the full force of the law.

“The government shall have no mercy on anyone who will be found engaging in the transmission of examination malpractices,” said Mr Ogamba.

The CS currently, 16,000 classrooms are being constructed to accommodate the new learning requirements. The CS, having toured several counties to monitor progress, expressed confidence that all classrooms will be ready ahead of the 2025 academic calendar.

“We are constructing 16,000 classrooms in our junior schools that will accommodate them in 2025,” said Mr Ogamba.

China’s Wuhan lab denies knowingly manufacturing and spreading the coronavirus

China’s Wuhan lab denies knowingly manufacturing and spreading the coronavirus

With the coronavirus death toll rising especially in the US, resentment and anger have not been left behind.

On Saturday, the US President Donald Trump insinuated that China should face dire consequences, if it knowingly manufactured and allowed the spread of the dreaded covid-19 which is now wreaking havoc across the world.

According to Chinese scientists, the coronavirus most likely originated from a market where exotic animals were slaughtered but conspiracy theories do not seem to read from the same script.

According to the theories, the virus was manufactured at a maximum-security virology lab from where it spread to the whole world.

Currently, independent investigations into the exact origin of the virus are underway.

Yuan Zhiming, the head of the P4 lab where the covid-19 was allegedly manufactured has however dismissed the allegations saying that there is no way the virus came from them.

In an interview with the State media Mr Zhiming said that he knows it is impossible.

Protests

This comes even as some US citizens took the streets to protest against lock-downs that have consequently led to joblessness.

The number of coronavirus positive cases has risen to over 735, 000 in the US with over 39, 000 people succumbing to the coronavirus.

On Saturday, hundreds of Americans flooded the capitals of Maryland, Hampshire, Texas and Ohio with some waving arms and others the American flags to show their dissatisfaction with the stay-at-home orders.

The protesters were encouraged by President Trump who tweeted that three states should be liberated from the lock-down.

Other countries currently under lockdown are Italy and Spain whose death tolls are over 20, 000 and France with over 19, 000.

Signs of victory over the pandemic have on the other hand been seen in some countries such as Switzerland, Denmark and Finland where schools and shops have been reopened.

Germany is also likely to get back to her feet after some shops were reopened on Monday.

KCSE Results Now Ready as Examiners Start Clearing from Knec Marking Centres; Expect Results as from Friday (This is how you can receive your official KCSE 2020 Knec Results)

Latest news reaching our newsdesk this afternoon on the awaited for release of the Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education, KCSE 2020 national exams indicate that the necessary measures have been undertaken to meet the May 10,2021 deadline set by the Education Ministry.

This is after reliable sources-KCSE 2020 Knec examiners revealed that the marking exercise for most KCSE 2020 Candidates’ scripts is complete.

The majority of the Knec Contracted Professionals are in the process of cross checking Candidates’ scores before they can officially clear and leave the designated Knec marking centres spread across Nairobi Metropolitan area.

Some of the KCSE 2020 scripts which have already been marked as of Sunday May 2, 2021 include History, CRE paper one, Chemistry Paper II, and Mathematics Paper II.

The marking of English Paper III, 101/3 which is the most rigorous and time consuming is almost complete.

The Examiners contracted to mark this paper have given their best shots to ensure that Results are released as scheduled.

They are expected to leave their marking centres by Tuesday May 4, 2021.

This means that the KCSE 2020 Examiners would have marked the over 700,000 scripts for Knec registered candidates within a record time of 14 days.

Moderation(Standardization) of KCSE 2020 Knec Results

Once the marking is done, the Kenya National Examinations Council, KNEC will take a few days to standardize learners’ scores .

This is a Mathematical process that is designed to eliminate variable elements from test scores thus enabling candidates to be compared without bias.

Moderation of KCSE Results thus involves giving equal values to the results of each test irrespective of the number of questions and the time allocated for completing them. That is why an A in Mathematics is lower than an A in CRE.

Teachers worried as learners drop guard against Covid 19 in schools; Latest education news

February 21, 2026 News Pro Team Leave a comment

Teachers concerned as learners disregard virus prevention measures in new schools’ reality; Education News

Latest reports hitting our newsdesk now indicate that learners are now “at home” in as far as the Covid-19 pandemic is concerned.

School heads say that the pandemic no longer bothers learners who have resorted to follow the MoH guidelines only when the teachers are around.

The Social Distance Headache in Schools

Both primary and secondary school heads have confirmed that enforcing the Covid-19 protocols is an uphill task since the majority of the leatnets have dropped their arsenal.

It is only three weeks now since the partial reopening of schools and the coronavirus scare is no longer an issue among learners, with reports indicating that learners have returned to their normal school life which encompasses socializing, walking in groups etc.

CS Magoha Set to Hold a Crisis Meeting Next Week to Chat the Path towards full school reopening

This comes even as Education Cabinet Secretary ProfessornGeorge Magoha said plans are underway to convene another stakeholders’ meeting next week to discuss the fate of other learners who are still at home.

“We are going to meet as stakeholders soon and as government and when time comes we may have to be bold enough to tell you when the rest of schools shall open,” said Magoha.

Magoha further added that even with Covid-19 infections surging, the government is considering opening schools for the rest of learners.

“Yes, Covid is spiking and it is not only in this country. What we are grappling with is whether to open for the other children or not,” said Magoha.

The Kenya Secondary School Heads Association (Kessha) Chair Kahi Indimuli reported that most learners are neither routinely washing their hands nor wearing masks with the seriousness they did when schools were reopened.

Learners no longer observing social distancing guidelines

It has also emerged that the social distancing guideline is no longer being observed since learners have reverted back to their old habits.

“These learners now think that after two weeks in school without any infections they are now good to go and can overlook some guidelines,” said Indimuli.

Consequently, teachers are now having a hard time trying to enforce the social distancing rules among learners in schools.

“Most learners are not wearing face masks, they do not care so much about proper use and hygiene of the masks and they also do not wash hands as frequently as it were before and this is a the new challenge in schools,” said Indimuli.

In boarding schools, children are no longer observing social distancing in their dormitories or classrooms.

“In the absence of teachers these learners just interact as if it is back to normal,” said another school head.

These disturbing revelations come at a time when the virus is wreaking havoc with some counties such as Nakuru experiencing an acute shortage of ICU beds for Covid 19 patients.

Primary school heads also expressed concerns of ill preparedness to handle Covid-19 as the numbers continue to surge.

Kenya Primary Schools Head Teachers Association (Kepsha) Chairman Nicholas Gathemia said schools are yet to be provided with mitigation measures to handle challenges.

Gathemia said teachers have not been sensitised well enough on management of Covid-19 in schools.

“This poses a high risk to both the teacher, parents and learners daily,” he said.

According to the ministries of Health and Education, schools are expected to monitor Covid-19 symptoms by checking temperatures of students often and looking for signs such as coughing, shortness of breath, loss of taste or smell, chills, muscle ache and headache.

Kepsha said primary schools have for a long time been overlooked and discriminated in disbursement of free education funding, which has stagnated at Sh1,470 per pupil annually for almost 20 years.

According to Gathemia, this money is paid in three phases and comes late in the term.

“This hinders early preparation for teaching and learning and at the end results in under covering of the syllabus,” he said.

Experts warned that re-closing schools means returning children to the possibility of community infections and uncertainty over scheduled March examinations and transition of the learners.

Even though recalling the rest of learners to schools will guarantee transition to next classes and help manage many social ills such as drug abuse and early pregnancies, the fear of infections in schools is also real.

But teachers who spoke to the Saturday Standard said children are safer in school.
