KNEC Seeks New KCSE 2024-2025 Examiners

Knec Advertises for KCSE 2024 Examiners

The Kenya National Examinations Council, KNEC, is seeking a new breed of examiners who will execute their duties diligently and deliver credible KCSE 2024 results in 33 different subject areas. Knec remits some incentives to encourage TSC-registered teachers to take up various roles such as chief examiners and team leaders. On the flipside, it should go on record that the KCSE marking national exercise can be a heart-wrenching and harrowing experience especially for expectant female teachers or teachers with chronic illnesses. Those with high blood pressure are advised to shun this exercise since it calls for extreme physical, mental and psychological well being besides being fit as a fiddle.

KCSE EXAMINERS PAY 2024-2025

We have updated new KNEC payment rates for this year’s KCSE examiners. According to the newly released KCSE Examiners payment rates per day, the least-paid KCSE 2024/2025 KNEC Examiner will pocket Kshs. 2,000 per day while the highest paid will walk home with an average of Kshs. 3, 000 per day. The average pay for most KCSE examiners ranges between Kshs 24,000 to Kshs 40,000. Take note of the fact that the KNEC pay for KCSE 2024/2025 examiners entails a wholesome perk that encompasses travel expenses and a coordination fee of Kshs. 150 per day. Consequently, KNEC cannot pay a similar amount for all the KCSE 2024/2025 examiners.

Examiners who will not be able to access the examiners’ portal and download their invitation letters are therefore advised to keep off the marking venues since trying to access the marking centers is an errand of futility.

KNEC invites and selects examiners based on their performance during KNEC training. The top performers are given opportunities first since they are likely to deliver more credible results.

REPORTING DATES AND TIMING FOR 2024 KNEC EXAMINERS

Given the throat-cutting competition for the limited Knec examiners’ vacancies, invited KCSE examiners are therefore advised to strictly adhere to the timelines indicated on the KNEC Examiners’ invitation letters 2024.

The official reporting time is 2:00 P.M. for all KNEC examiners. Kindly note that the reporting dates differ from one KCSE script to the other since the papers have got different demands.

More demanding KCSE papers like English paper 3 Eng 101/3 require more time while marking since examiners have to peruse through at least three compositions per candidate. These examiners therefore will report to their designated marking centers a few days after the candidates sit for their last KCSE examination paper.

Examiners who fail to turn up on the official reporting date and time indicated in the invitation letter will be disqualified.
