The Kenya National Examination Council (KNEC) on Friday, January 19, released the 2023 Kenya Primary School Education Assessment (KPSEA) results.
According to KNEC, parents and learners will access the results from their headteachers who have the logins to the KNEC CBA portal.
School Heads will download and print the results, which will be in certificate form, and issue them to parents and learners at zero cost.
“We are releasing a notice this afternoon to ask parents to check with their schools,” one of the KNEC officials told a  local daily.
2,000 students who didn’t do 2023 KCPE to join Form One, do exams later
The results were released four days after the students reported to their respective schools on Monday, January 15. Some 1,282,574 candidates sat the KPSEA exam in various schools across the country.
The KPSEA candidates did five subjects: Mathematics, English, Kiswahili, Integrated Science and Social Studies, and Physical Health Education.
All the candidates transitioned to junior secondary at Grade 7. They were the first to sit the Kenya Primary School Education Assessment (KPSEA) under the Competency-Based Curriculum (CBC).
KPSEA is the new primary exit examination under CBC and is administered in Grade 6. Education Cabinet Secretary Ezekiel Machogu said it will be done to monitor learner achievement and not the placement of candidates to secondary schools.
