KNEC Warns Against Scams Offering KCSE Grade Changes.

The Kenya National Examination Council (KNEC) has dismissed claims regarding a new grading system for the Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (KCSE) exams.

Through a post on X, KNEC stated that the grading system circulating online is fake, emphasizing that the grading process for the November exams has not yet been finalized.

Last week, KNEC addressed allegations suggesting that KCSE marks were being altered for students who had paid for the service.

The council’s Chief Executive Officer, David Njengere, clarified that online posts purporting to offer mark changes were false and misleading. He described the reports as part of a scheme by fraudsters.

Marking of the KCSE exams, which began shortly after their conclusion on November 22, is expected to be completed by December. KNEC reiterated that the marking process remains a highly confidential exercise.

They stated that the identities of examiners involved in the process would not be disclosed to maintain the integrity of the exams. The council assured the public that all invited examiners undergo strict vetting to ensure reliability.

  • 44 cases are still under investigation.
