Learners can now confirm or check their school selection list as the release date of the Kenya Junior Secondary Education Assessment (KJSEA) results approaches.
According to a message sent to various people on Thursday, December 4, telecommunications company Safaricom notified parents and guardians that they can verify their children’s school selections by dialing a specific USSD code.
To check a KJSEA learner’s selected schools, send their assessment number to 22263. The SMS costs Ksh 30,” the message reads.
The service allows parents to confirm the choices made before the official results are released and placements announced.
The Kenya National Examinations Council (KNEC) has also activated a portal where parents can review the schools and academic pathways chosen by learners who have completed the KJSEA.
By visiting https://selection.education.go.ke/my-selections and entering the learner’s assessment number, parents can now view the selected schools and preferred pathway.
Education Cabinet Secretary Julius Ogamba announced during a media briefing on Wednesday, October 29, that the Kenya National Examinations Council (KNEC) will release the 2025 KJSEA results on December 11 this year.

A total of 1,130,669 Grade 9 students sat for the KJSEA examination, marking a significant milestone as the country transitions to the Competency-Based Curriculum.
Under the new placement system, learners were required to select 12 schools based on their preferred learning pathways. The distribution includes seven schools for their first choice pathway, three for the second choice, and two for the third choice.
Of the 12 selections, nine must be boarding schools, with three located within the learner’s home county and six outside the county. The remaining three selections should be day schools within the home sub-county.
The placement process considers five key factors: learner choice based on selected pathways and schools, merit determined by performance in KJSEA and prior assessments, psychometric test results that gauge aptitude and interests, equity to ensure regional balance and affirmative action for marginalized groups, and capacity based on availability of resources and space in schools.
Special provisions have been put in place to guarantee top performers and learners with special needs priority placement in schools of their choice.
The government has set January 12, 2026, as the reporting date for the first cohort of Grade 10 learners who will transition to senior secondary schools under the CBC framework.
