KCSE candidates begin their practical exams on Monday, February 28, after rehearsing on Friday last week in preparation for the exams.
The candidates completed project exams in January, which began in July 2021. Art and design, agriculture, woodworking, metalworking, building construction, and computer studies are among them.
Despite a strike threat by teachers over a salary dispute, Education Cabinet Secretary George Magoha assured on Friday that the remaining exams will go on smoothly.
The Kenya Union of Post-Primary Education Teachers (KUPPET) issued a seven-day strike notice on Friday to push for the resumption of salary negotiations.
Magoha, however, asked the union to suspend the strike until after the national exams are over.
“I want to plead with them to suspend that strike or they can issue it immediately after exams. It will be fair to the children,” Magoha said.
Theory exams will begin on Monday, March 14, and will end on Friday, April 1.
