The 889,000 candidates who sat this year’s Kenya Certificate of Primary Education exams will know their results on December 29.
The Kenya National Examinations Council (Knec) also said in a statement Wednesday that letters would be sent to candidates whose results are withheld.
However, schools will not be ranked this year according to their performance following a recent ban by Education Cabinet Secretary Jacob Kaimenyi.
Until last year, schools were ranked according to the counties and the names of the top 10 and bottom 10 primary schools were published.
Prof Kaimenyi will release the results at Mitihani House, off Dennis Pritt Road in Nairobi.
In a statement, the newly appointed Knec CEO, Dr Joseph Kivilu, said candidates would also access their results by sending their index number to 22252 immediately after the results are released.
“All candidates and respective head teachers are advised that the 2014 examination results slips will be downloaded from the Knec website (www.knec.ac.ke),” knec said. “Upon receipt of the results, thoroughly scrutinize the results for correctness and ensure the accuracy of names, index number and gender, school code and the individual subjects,” reads the statement from Knec.
Knec has given candidates a window period of one month to lodge their complaints on any discrepancies noted in the examination results.
“Any discrepancy noted on the examination results should be communicated to KNEC as query within one month from the date of release of the examination results, including appeals for remarking.”
In 2013, the exam results of 1,576 candidates were cancelled because of irregularities.
