KNEC cautions 2024 KCSE candidates over exam results

The Kenya National Examination Council (KNEC) cautions 2024 KCSE candidates against checking results via SMS.

The Kenya National Examination Council (KNEC) has dismissed as fake a notice making rounds on social media that one can check their KCSE results via a text message.

KNEC reiterated that to access the 2024 Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education results, one will need to log into a website designed for the purpose.

“To access your 2024 KCSE examination results online, use the link http://results.knec.ac.ke,” KNEC said.

“Enter your index number and any one of your registered names on the spaces provided. Click on “View Results” to display your scores.”

In the fake notice, it had said one can open their messaging app, type the index number followed by KCSE and send the sms to 20076.

It also had provided contact details for KNEC.

The KCSE results were released on Thursday.

The results were accessible immediately after Education Cabinet Secretary Julius Ogamba released them.

Parents and candidates were directed to log into the website.

After logging in on the website, press the ‘KSCE Results’ icon.

“Individual 2024 KCSE candidates’ examination results will be accessed online through a link on the KNEC website or directly through the URL: https://results.knec.ac.ke/,” a statement from KNEC read.

“Key in your index number and any one of your registered name(s) on the spaces provided. Click on the “View Results button and the results will appear on the screen.”

Official result slips are accessible through examination centres where the candidates sat for their exams.

The 2024 KCSE exams took place in 10,755 centres, with a record-high of 965,501 candidates sitting the exams, an increase from 903,138 in 2023.

The marking of exams concluded on December 13, 2024, after an extensive effort by examiners across 35 designated marking centres.

The checking of results via sms was discontinued by former Education CS Machogu.

This was after the ministry witnessed errors during the release of the 2023 Kenya Certificate of Primary Education (KCPE) exams.
