Any delay that may result would be due to the great challenge posed by the Covid-19 pandemic movement restriction in some counties which made some examiners be unable to show up for the marking in the marking centers. Others however failed to turn up due to their fears over the Covid-19 pandemic.

Prof. George Magoha, however, noted that the above mishaps have not interfered with the KCPE exams marking schedule and that the Ministry of Education has done everything possible to ensure the results are out as per the schedule.

Dr Matiang’i said there were no irregularities that were recorded during the exams and also during the marking.

KCPE 2018 Results Top Candidate

The Highest candidate in KCPE results 2018 scored 437 marks out of the possible 500 marks. Education CS Fred Matiang’i interestingly noted that this candidate couldn’t have ranked above to 90 candidates in 2016 KCPE Results.

The number of candidates scoring 400 marks in KCPE 2016 was 5190 down from 7560 in KCPE 2015. This is a 31% drop in students above 400 marks.

Special needs students were 1,950 and one of them scored 421 marks.

Cheating in KCPE 2018 Results

In KCPE 2018 Results, none of the papers was leaked since all leakage attempts were thwarted. Education CS Amina Mohammed said that exam cheating caused ridicule to Kenyans who sought employment regionally and internationally because their examination credentials were frowned upon. The Education Ministry spent much money on securing the examination process. The cost-benefit of extra
cost of exam administration is justifiable in comparison to the shame, ridicule and lost opportunities Kenyans faced previously.

There were only four instances of exam cancellation in KCPE 2018 due to impersonation. The candidates will be allowed to resit for the exam next year.

In KCPE 2017 results, there was no cheating or leakage, therefore no cancellation of results. But there was a total of 21 malpractices in Wajir County where there were teachers caught with cellphones in the bush trying to send answers to candidates. However, the possible answers were just ending up with the security officers because all cellphones were left safely with the security officers.

The TSC CEO Mrs Macharia noted that the exercise was 99% successful because ICT because incorporated in the marking process and the excellent partnership of various education sectors and the government.

Pregnancy cases during KCPE Exam 2018

No resitting of the exam for the pregnant girls. In October, 32 teachers who were found to have caused these pregnancies were deregistered.

As part of the remedy to this problem, TSC CEO Nancy Macharia said that private schools MUST employ teachers who have registered with TSC and have TSC numbers. This is to ensure that all teachers in all schools abide to TSC Code of Conduct.

Ranking of Schools in KCPE 2018 Results, Top Schools, results per county

There will be no ranking of schools in 2018. A law for ranking was passed in October 2016 but there was legislation required to effect that which the Education Ministry has not yet legislated upon. From next year ranking will come back

All students scoring above 400 marks will join National schools of their choice

Headteachers will be Supported, strengthened and rewarded well

This, however, appears to be the beginning of the last days of the KCPE Examinations following the overhaul of the Education System in Kenya from the moribund 8-4-4 to the new system and curriculum, 2-6-3-3-3.
