KNEC issues warning over 2024 KPSEA and KCSE registration

KNEC issues warning over 2024 KPSEA and KCSE registration

KNEC says there will be no deadline extension for KPSEA and KCSE examination registrations this year

KNEC says there will be no deadline extension for KPSEA and KCSE examination registrations this year.

The Kenya National Examination Council (KNEC) has announced that there will be no extension deadline for the registration of students sitting this year’s national examinations.

Registration for the 2024 Kenya Primary School Education Assessment (KPSEA) and Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education examinations has been ongoing since January, and KNEC has said the deadline remains March 29 and there will be no extension.

“Please note that the portal for registration of this year’s candidates closes on March 29, one week from now.

“There will be no extension of the deadline, and requests for late registration will not be honoured,” KNEC announced through a statement on X.

Apart from the warning concerning the deadline, KNEC also said photos of KCSE candidates will not be changed after the end of the registration process.

“There will be no room for change of photographs for KCSE candidates after the closure of the registration period,” the examination agency said.

KNEC further advised the guardians and parents to ensure they visit their children’s schools, that they are well registered, and that their details are captured accurately.

The registration process began in January, and KNEC chief executive officer David Njengere then warned that there would be no extension that would be granted.

“As KNEC is on registration of candidates for KPSEA and KCSE in 2024, we always have major challenges in this area, and we want to announce that the registration for 2024 KPSEA and KCSE will begin on January 29, and it’s going to run for two months up to March 29, 2024,” Njengere said at Moi Girls High School in Eldoret then.

According to KNEC, registration of regular students will be overseen by heads of schools.

The heads are also responsible for presenting candidates for the KCSE examination to ensure candidates presented for the examination are eligible, school-going students who have been laming in their schools.

The registration of ghost candidates is considered malpractice.

All candidates must adhere to the laid-down regulations on subject entry requirements for grading (subject clusters) as stipulated in the regulations for the KCSE examination.

KCSE examinations will be administered at the end of the year, and results, as usual, are expected to be released in early 2025.

The results each candidate will get are used to determine whether he or she can transition to higher levels of education. 

These are also the results that the Kenya Universities and Colleges Central Placement Service (KUCCPS) uses to determine which career students will enroll in during admission.
