KCPE 2020/2021 Exam Results- The date when this year’s Kenya Certificate of Primary Education (KCPE) results will be released has been announced. Education Cabinet Secretary Prof George Magoha says marking of the multiple choice exams is now complete. It is important to note that these tests are marked by scanners through a high tech computerized system; and hence the faster marking rate.
CS Magoha said on Tuesday that the examiners under contracted by the Kenya National Council of Examination (KNEC) had now started marking Insha and Composition exams administered under the Kiswahili and English paper respectively.
“We have completed the marking of multiple choice questions and started the marking of composition and insha papers,” CS Magoha told journalists on Tuesday in Kisumu.
Magoha said the marking exercise is voluntary to the examiners and nobody will coerce them to participate.
“If you choose you don’t want to go to Nairobi because you think you might get what is there, we can’t force you to come,” he noted.
The CS was responding to claims that teachers’ unions were opposed to centralization of the marking in the capital, Nairobi; that has recorded the highest cases of the deadly Covid19 pandemic. He added that the number of examiners has been trimmed so as to observe social distance during the marking.
On release of the KCPE results, CS Magoha announced that they will be released in the next two weeks; by Monday 19th April, 2021. The 2019 KCPE results were announced on 18th November.
