NAIROBI, MARCH 4, 2016(CISA) – The Kenya National Examination Council (KNEC) has cancelled the results of over 5000 students who sat for last year’s Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (KCSE). “Whereas in 2014, we had 2,975 candidates who were found to have been involved in examination irregularities and their results were cancelled, in 2015 we are cancelling the results of 5,101 candidates,” said Dr Matiang’i. He however noted that the Kenya National Examinations Council (KNEC) would not cancel the results of schools with cases of cheating “wholesale” due to the high number of reported cases. Only Isiolo of all 47 counties had no cases of cheating whereas Nairobi, Makueni and Meru recorded the highest number of exam irregularities. In October last year, The Kenya Conference of Catholic Bishops warned over reports of leakage of the 2015 Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (KCSE) Examination papers to students and teachers.
