    The Kenya National Examinations Council, Knec, has postponed the uploading of the 2020 Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (KCSE) project marks for Group IV subjects. This is as a result of the current shutdown of all learning institutions to curb further spread of the current COVID-19 (CoronaVirus) Pandemic in the Country.

    “The Kenya National Examinations Council wishes to inform you that further guidelines on the handling of Milestone 1 and 2 for Group IV projects will be issued when schools reopen,” reads a Memo by the Council’s Boss, Dr. Mercy Karogo, that is dated March 27, 2020, and dispatched to Sub-County Directors of Education and Secondary Schools principals.

    Knec had earlier set the deadline for uploading the projects’ scores and pictorial evidence for Milestone one to be 31st of March, 2020 while uploading of data for Milestone two would have been done between 15th June to 15th July, 2020.

    The 2020 KCSE Subjects with the project component are: Art & Design (442/3 2D Project,
    Agriculture (443/3) and Woodwork (444/2). Others are Metalwork (445/2),Building Construction (446/2) and Computer Studies (451/3).

    It is subject teachers who assess the candidates’ projects and upload the marks plus pictorial evidence to the Knec portal for verification and final conversions. By the time the Government ordered for closure of schools, the the marking had not been completed by most tutors.

    The fate of this year’s National examinations remains in balance as the world puts up a spirited fight against the deadly CoronaVirus. According to the 2020 KCSE time table from the Council, the candidates would sit for their examinations from Monday November 2, 2020 to Wednesday November 25, 2020.

    For Kenya Certificate of Primary Education, KCPE, candidates their examinations would be done between October 26 to October 29, 2020. It is only a matter of wait and see to know whether these dates will be retained or altered; after schools reopen.
