The KCSE 2023 results for the national tests conducted in over 10,000 examination centers between Monday, October 23, 2023, and Friday, November 24, 2023, will be released before Christmas. The tentative KCSE 2023 release date is on Friday December 16, 2023. This date is, however, subject to change owing to the fact that before KCSE results are released the President must be briefed first. In case the President has flown out of the country on official errands, the Cabinet Secretary in charge of Education Ezekiel Machogu will have no option but to wait for his return. If the President gives a nod and vets the KCSE 2023 results, then the CS Education would have received official permission to usurp his powers and release the results to the general public.
The live release of the KCSE 2023 results will be aired live on all the mainstream media houses. Stay tuned for these and more updates by subscribing to our media channel.
