To get the results of this exercise, visit the Ministry's official website www.education.go.ke. or www.kemis.education.go.ke where candidates can view their results and download joining instructions.
“Upon downloading the joining instructions, the candidate must present the letter to the head teacher of the primary school where they sat their KCPE Examination for authentication. The principal of the admitting school will further verify the letter. Principals are advised to confirm that letters presented to them belong to learners who will strictly be on their selection list. Primary and Secondary Schools can access their selection lists from the NEMIS platform,” CS Machogu has said.
