What you need to know:

  • The Knec boss said the assessments for other classes will be conducted upon reopening of specific grades.
  • The assessments are meant to test learners' understanding and ability to remember what they had learnt before schools closed on March 15.

Grade Four and Standard Eight national tests that were scheduled to start today have been postponed to Wednesday due to the Mashujaa Day celebrations.

The Kenya National Examination Council (Knec) has issued a circular to all head teachers asking them to adjust to the new dates.
