Teacher Loise Mwangi supervises Grade Four pupils during Mathematics practical exams during the national assessment at DEB Karatina Primary School in Nyeri County on March 9, 2021.
The pupils were assessed from March 8 to 19, after which teachers marked the tasks and have been uploading the outcomes on Knec portal.
Subjects proving most difficult to upload are science and agriculture, as well as integrated learning areas for pupils with special needs.
Primary school heads are struggling to upload scores attained by Grade Four learners in an assessment carried out two months ago.
Teachers who spoke to the Daily Nation said it takes inordinately long to upload the data, raising queries about the system that is expected to carry the children’s cumulative results until they complete primary school.
