KNEC Finally Confirms Pay Day for Supervisors and Invigilators

By | June 10, 2022
When will KNEC Pay 2022 Supervisors and Invigilators?

The Kenya National Examinations Council, KNEC, has officially confirmed that the 2022 dues are now ready for payment for all contracted professionals who took part in the supervision and invigilation of the 2022 KCSE and KCPE national examinations between March and April 2022.

According to the council, all supervisors and invigilators will get their rightful dues next week by Friday the 17th of June, 2022.

This follows pressure emanating from different pressure groups including the teachers’ unions and especially members of the august House last week who demanded the appearance of the current Cabinet Secretary for Education Professor George Magoha to elucidate and shed light on the delayed payment for center managers, supervisors, and invigilators this year.

Knec Put to Task over Delayed Payment of 2022 Supervisors and Invigilators; Check the Latest Knec Payment Rates and Allowances Below

In spite of Invigilators and Supervisors being paid a pittance for the demanding task of manning the Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education KCSE and the Kenya Certificate of Primary Education KCPE national Examinations, the Kenya National Examinations Council Knec has gone a notch higher, and escalated teachers’ troubles by constantly delaying their payment.

Last year, the Knec contracted professionals were paid two months following the release of the Knec results.

This has forced members of Parliament led by Bomet Central legislator Honourable Ronald Tonui to intervene and demand explanations pertaining to this long wait.

Last week, the Members of Parliament demanded that CS Magoha appears before the Parliament to explain why Knec was yet to pay supervisors and invigilators. This has been the trend for the past few years and it is really disheartening.

Honorable Tonui who also serves as the KUPPET assistant national treasurer called for a review of the 2022-2023 KNEC payment rates citing protests from teachers who are put through hard times when manning the national examinations.

Knec however maintained a non-committal attitude towards increasing the payment rates per day for center managers, supervisors, and invigilators.

Confirmed KNEC Pay Day for Supervisors and Invigilators

The confirmed payday for 2022 KNEC supervisors and invigilators is by June 17, 2022.
