Candidates who are hospitalised or sick during the administration of national examinations will no longer be forced to write the papers in hospital once a new policy is implemented.
Instead, the Kenya National Examinations Council (Knec) will be expected to give the affected candidates supplementary examinations.
This was revealed yesterday by the National Assembly’s Education Committee, which toured the New Mitihani House to assess its construction progress and preparedness for the national exams, which begin at the end of next month.
However, this year’s candidates will not benefit from the changes, as the recommendation was made too late, when the exams had already been set.
