2020 KNEC exams’ milestone 1 and 2 guide for KCSE

Is your school presenting candidates in project based examinations this year? Please note that the Kenya National Examinations Council, Knec, has opened its online platform for schools to capture the 2020 Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education, KCSE, project marks. The portal was opened on March 1, 2020.

Schools presenting candidates for group four subjects have up to the 31st of March, 2020, to upload the projects’ scores and pictorial evidence for Milestone one.

According to Knec instructions, the subject teachers are expected to upload candidates’ scores and pictorial evidence (portfolio) on the project portal; at the end of each milestone.

The Pictorial evidence should be photographs of the candidates with their work, in either Graphics Interface Format (.gif) or JPEG (.jpg) format (These two are photograph formats obtained by using a digital Camera). In Agriculture, for instance, students will be photographed in their full school uniforms. They will be expected to stand alongside their plots, the Subject teacher and Principal.
