Education Cabinet Secretary Fred Matiang’i has introduced measures to manage this year’s national examinations in an attempt to restore confidence eroded by exam malpractice.
Dr Matiang'i, who early this year stated that examinations had been clearly mismanaged in past years, began with the disbandment of the Kenya National Examinations Board in April. This was the first step in instituting radical changes in the Education sector. Unlike previous years when the Kenya National Examinations Council (Knec) would dispatch a supervisor to manage respective examination centres, this year will see principals of schools that are also examination centres take charge of the Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (KCSE) exams.
