Ministry of Education to release KCSE 2024 Examination results today.
The Ministry of Education has confirmed that it will release the KCSE 2024 Examination results on Thursday Mitihani House at 10am.
“Education Cabinet Secretary Julius Migos Ogamba will today, 9th January, 2025 release the KCSE 2024 Examination results at Mitihani House, South C, Nairobi at 10am.” said Ministry of Education
The release of the 2024 Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (KCSE) exam results will be delayed due to a combination of factors, including the unprecedented number of candidates and extensive checks to prevent cheating, sources have confirmed.
This marks a significant departure from previous years when KCSE exam results were announced just a few days after the conclusion of marking.
According to the Ministry of Education, 965,501 candidates registered for the 2024 KCSE exams, the largest number in the history of the national examinations.
While the marking wrapped up last week, the volume of students has contributed to delays in processing and analysing the results, which require careful scrutiny to prevent any errors or fraud.
“This year’s examination is unique due to the large number of candidates. We are taking additional time to ensure there are no discrepancies or instances of malpractice in the results,” an insider from the Kenya National Examinations Council (KNEC) told the Daily Nation.
Examination reforms
The delayed results come after a series of examination reforms that were introduced in 2016 under then-Education CS Fred Matiang’i.
These reforms have aimed to ensure transparency, curb cheating, and provide quick feedback to students.
In previous years, the results were often released within a few days of the marking being completed, a practice that was credited with reducing the manipulation of exam scores.
However, with over 965,000 students involved in the 2024 KCSE exam, the scale of the examination has necessitated a more detailed approach.
The time-consuming process includes verifying every entry to avoid mix-ups, as well as performing deeper checks to root out any potential cheating.
A KNEC source further explained to the Daily Nation that the delay is also linked to ongoing analysis of the Kenya Primary School Education Assessment (KPSEA) results for Grade Six students, which was conducted earlier in the year.
While CS Ogamba did not specify an exact release date for the KCSE results, he assured that the ministry was committed to ensuring a fair and thorough process for all candidates.
The marking of this year’s exams was concluded last week, but Education Cabinet Secretary Julius Ogamba revealed that the results will not be available until early January, more than three weeks later than usual.
