The Kenya National Examinations Council, KNEC, has officially confirmed that the 2022 dues are now ready for payment for all contracted professionals who took part in the supervision and invigilation of the 2022 KCSE and KCPE national examinations between March and April 2022.
According to the council, all supervisors and invigilators will get their rightful dues next week by Friday the 17th of June, 2022.
This follows pressure emanating from different pressure groups including the teachers’ unions and especially members of the august House last week who demanded the appearance of the current Cabinet Secretary for Education Professor George Magoha to elucidate and shed light on the delayed payment for center managers, supervisors, and invigilators this year.
In spite of Invigilators and Supervisors being paid a pittance for the demanding task of manning the Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education KCSE and the Kenya Certificate of Primary Education KCPE national Examinations, the Kenya National Examinations Council Knec has gone a notch higher, and escalated teachers’ troubles by constantly delaying their payment.
Last year, the Knec contracted professionals were paid two months following the release of the Knec results.
This has forced members of Parliament led by Bomet Central legislator Honourable Ronald Tonui to intervene and demand explanations pertaining to this long wait.
Last week, the Members of Parliament demanded that CS Magoha appears before the Parliament to explain why Knec was yet to pay supervisors and invigilators. This has been the trend for the past few years and it is really disheartening.
Honorable Tonui who also serves as the KUPPET assistant national treasurer called for a review of the 2022-2023 KNEC payment rates citing protests from teachers who are put through hard times when manning the national examinations.
Knec however maintained a non-committal attitude towards increasing the payment rates per day for center managers, supervisors, and invigilators.
The confirmed payday for 2022 KNEC supervisors and invigilators is by June 17, 2022.
Knec has already listed supervisors and invigilators who will receive their payment next week. Their names and other crucial details such as phone numbers are already in the online KNEC attendance register.
Kindly note that some center managers, supervisors, and invigilators will not get paid a single penny, especially those deployed to centers where KCSE results were either withheld or canceled.
Now all eyes are trained on KNEC to see whether it will release the payment for the two supervisors and invigilators posted to man the 2021 KCSE examinations at Oriwo Boys High School, a KCSE top-performing school whose results were withheld awaiting the verdict of the council for over 14 days.
