Teachers will evaluate the students as they work on these tasks and score them based on the guidelines provided.
Headteachers must keep all records and evidence from the assessments.
Deadline
Students in the stage-based pathway must submit their projects by July 31, 2025.
For KJSEA projects, students have until August 30, 2025, to upload their scores to the portal.
Schools must complete the projects and upload scores for Grades 3, 7, and 8 by July 31, 2025, and for KJSEA projects by August 30, 2025.
