The Kenya Primary School Education Assessment (KPSEA) reports for Grade Six learners will be available by June 16.

The Kenya National Examination Council (KNEC) Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Dr. David Njengere said learners will get individual learner reports that will indicate the learner performance level in specific subjects.

“The learners will get individual learner reports that will indicate the learner performance level in specific subjects/strands including the acquisition of values and core competencies and performance level in specific subjects. These reports will be available by January 16,” said Njengere during the release of the 2022 Kenya Certificate of Primary Education (KCPE) exams.

He said the Council will report on KPSEA at three levels namely individual learners for the summative assessment, school-specific as well as a national report on school-based and summative assessments.

“Following the recommendation by the Presidential Working Party on Education Reforms and the directive by the President on domiciling of Junior Secondary School and the fact that KPSEA will not be used for placement of learners but for monitoring learner progress, KNEC will report on KPSEA on three levels,” he explained.

Njengere said the national report will be used to provide feedback to education stakeholders on areas that require intervention.

The report will indicate the proportion of learners at each of the performance levels per subject and strand and also give specific recommendations to teachers, the Kenya Institute of Curriculum Development (KICD), the Teachers Service Commission (TSC), the Ministry of Education and parents or guardians.

He said there will also be a school-specific report whose scope will be limited to the individual schools.
The report will be accessible online to the schools. It will guide teachers on strands that require intervention in teaching and learning.

KNEC engaged the services of 5,692 examiners during the marking of the English Composition and Kiswahili Insha answer scripts.

“I wish to appreciate all examiners, centre organizers and their teams for facilitating the marking process,” Njengere said.
