As the norm is, the Education Cabinet Secretary Ezekiel
Machogu, PS, and TSC officials are
supposed to brief the President at the State House before releasing officially the
results to the public.
According to a top KNEC official, everything is set for the
release of exams.
“We are prepared, and the exams will be released right away
after the president is briefed.”the official said
Individual learners, school-specific reports, and the
national report on school-based and summative assessment are the three
reports
The national report will highlight the areas that require
assistance as well as the number of learners at each performance level per
topic who require intervention.
The individual school report will be tailored to each school
and will highlight areas where students face difficulties and where schools
require further assistance.
Mr. Njengere further said the national report will be
greatly used by Education stakeholders to have feedback on areas that require
intervention
The main examiners and their helpers for the Kenya National
Examinations Council worked nonstop throughout the weekend in preparation for
the release.
School reports will be limited to specific schools while
individual learner reports will be helping them to know their strengths and
weaknesses in specific subjects or strands.
“This will include acquisition of values and core
competencies and performances level in specific subjects,” Njengere said.
Parents and learners will only be able to access the results
through school websites after release on Monday 16th.
Mr. Njegere concluded that the KPSEA results will help TSC
to identify areas where teachers are unable to deliver effectively and require
improvements.
The Grade 6 pupils will proceed to grade 7.
The Grade 6 Kenya Primary School Education Assessment
(KPSEA) will not be used for Junior Secondary School placement.
The 3 ways candidates and schools will be ranked in
KPSEA, Grade 6 results
1. Learners' results
The KNEC CEO announced that the first level of reporting
will be on an individual learner's results.
Dr Njeng'ere outlined that individual learners will get a
report of their performance which they will access through their own school portals
as well as on the KNEC website.
2. Schools results
KNEC will provide all schools with a report that will
summarize areas in which most candidates had challenges and help the institutions
to repair their individual lapses.
3. National report on school-based & summative
assessments
The CEO explained that this report will be used by
stakeholders to identify areas that will require further intervention.
It will also indicate the proportion of learners'
performance at each level per subject and form a basis for interventions from
the Kenya Institute of Curriculum Development (KICD), the Teachers Service
Commission (TSC), and the Ministry of Education.
