Scrutiny of registration data for KCPE, KCSE candidates begins

SUBJECTS CAPTURED

“Only subjects captured in the nominal rolls will be offered to the candidates… Heads of institutions should take note that they will be held personally responsible and will be surcharged for errors in the registration data for 2018 KCPE and KCSE candidates,” warned the circular dated April 12, 2018 and sent to 30,000-plus heads of primary schools offering candidates for the 2018 national examinations, and sub-county directors of education.  Wrong registration data was the reason some schools received fewer exam papers compared to the number of candidates last year, prompting some centers to photocopy the materials thereby exposing the questions to security breaches.

PERSONAL DETAILS

The candidates’ personal details audit comes slightly over a month after the 2018 registration of candidates for national exams closed on March 7, 2018
Since then, Knec has been editing and correcting the registration data according to requests for amendments submitted by heads of institutions and sub-county directors of education (for private candidates).  “The heads of institutions and sub-county directors of education are asked to view the online nominal rolls to confirm that all eligible candidates are registered,” it said. A scrutiny found that most new schools wishing to be registered as Knec examination centres did not submit registration documents a year earlier as required
