Few days after completion and end of Kenya Certificate of Primary Education (KCPE), the Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (KCSE) main examinations officially begins this Monday morning.
The assigned officials and officers from the Ministry of Education today early morning arrived at various centres to collect exams with the officers in charge overseeing the distribution process. The KSCE exams papers were said to be collected twice a day to avoid cases of multi-practices in exam cheating.
The Kenya National Examination Council (KNEC) released guidelines and rules that will govern learners and that whoever attempts exam cheating will be penalized and will have his/her exams cancelled. Moreover, any exam centre that will engage in exam cheating will as well have results for the whole centre cancelled.
Basic Education Principal Secretary Belio Kipsang stressed that the schools efforts will reflect onto the learners results.
“Our focus should be on value addition to our students. Whatever results that our children will get is from the input of our teams in schools,” Education PS Kipsang said in a media address on Monday.
Teachers Service Commission CEO Nancy Macharia today morning was at the Mvita centre in Mombasa County overseeing the exams while Education PS Belio Kipsang led the exercise at Westlands DCC.
The Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education is set to end on November 24, 2023.
