KNEC to Administer KPLEA Exams to 5,360 Candidates with Special needs.
KNEC CEO David Njeng’ere has outlined the upcoming assessments, including the third cohort of the Competency-Based Education (CBE) system and the Kenya Junior Secondary Education Assessment.
The KNEC plans to administer the Kenya Pre-vocational Level Education Assessment (KPLEA) for an estimated 5,360 candidates with special needs.
A pilot for the Kenya Junior Secondary Education Assessment was conducted in 235 schools across all 47 counties in July 2024.
The findings from the pilot informed the development of an assessment blueprint. Sample papers for this new assessment have been uploaded on the KNEC portal, and Dr. Njengere reminded the public that these materials are free to access.
Lastly, Dr. Njengere informed the public that the KCSE examination will conclude in 2027. He encouraged anyone interested in re-taking the exams, whether partially or fully, to make use of the remaining opportunities.
