The Ministry of Education has announced that results for the Kenya Primary School Education Assessment (KPSEA) and the Kenya Junior School Education Assessment (KJSEA) will be released in December 2025, while the Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (KCSE) results will follow in January 2026.

Education Cabinet Secretary Julius Migos has said the staggered release will allow for comprehensive marking, moderation, and validation to uphold the integrity of the national assessment system.

“We want to ensure that every candidate’s work is accurately evaluated and that results reflect genuine effort and merit,” he stated.

The CS assured the country that all examinations have so far proceeded smoothly across the 47 counties despite weather-related challenges in some regions.

He said the ministry, working with the Ministry of Interior and education officers on the ground, had deployed 342,687 contracted professionals, including center managers, invigilators, supervisors, and security officers, to guarantee the seamless running of the national exams.

“The KCSE examinations, which began on October 1, are progressing well, with candidates now transitioning from practicals to their main written papers. For the KPSEA and KJSEA assessments, which ended this week, all learners sat their papers without major disruptions, “he said.

In flood-prone and remote areas, the government put in place contingency logistics, including localized distribution points and alternative storage facilities, to ensure no learner missed their exams.

The CS reiterated the government’s zero-tolerance stance on exam irregularities, warning those attempting to share counterfeit papers online.

“We are aware of individuals circulating fake materials through social media platforms. I want to assure the country that these papers are not genuine and that offenders will face the full force of the law,” he said.

He commended teachers, parents, and local administrators for their cooperation in maintaining order during the exercise, emphasizing that integrity in examinations is key to preserving public trust in Kenya’s education system.

“These examinations are not just a rite of passage-they are a gateway to opportunity, social mobility, and national prosperity.We urge all candidates to stay calm and focused as we complete this important national process,”the CS said.
