KCSE Results Alert: KNUT Urges Machogu for Precision. The Kenya National Union of Teachers (KNUT) fervently advocates for an extended timeframe from Education CS Ezekiel Machogu. Emphasizing the need for meticulous compilation of marks for the Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (KCSE). Addressing the press passionately in Bungoma on Saturday, Aggrey Namisi, KNUT’s National Vice Chairperson. Highlights concerns over errors witnessed in hastily released Kenya Certificate of Primary Education (KCPE) results.
Namisi’s plea underscores the pressing necessity for a deliberate and unhurried approach in the examination result release process. Urging CS Machogu to prioritize thorough examination processes. Namisi addresses growing concerns about exam cheating. Calling for immediate action to steer the education system back on the right path.
Namisi highlights a significant mix-up in marking the Kenya Certificate of Primary Education. Pointing to instances where pupils who did not engage in sign language received incorrectly awarded sign language marks. This underscores the need for extensive reforms to guarantee precision and equity in assessing students’ performance.
In alignment with KNUT’s overarching goal of safeguarding the credibility and integrity of examination outcomes, the union firmly believes that granting examiners the necessary time for meticulous result analysis contributes significantly to producing error-free and credible examination results.
This advocacy coincides with recent events where errors were witnessed in the release of KCPE results, with some candidates being awarded marks for subjects they did not sit for. Acknowledging these discrepancies, Kenya National Examination Council (Knec) CEO David Njengere reports receiving appeals from affected schools dissatisfied with their results, as communicated through the SMS code 40054. KNUT’s call for reform and careful examination processes represents a crucial step towards enhancing the overall quality and reliability of the education evaluation system in Kenya.
