The KJSEA results indicated that 75 per cent of the 1,130,459 candidates reached or surpassed the ‘Approaching Expectations’ level, with girls outperforming boys in 10 of 12 learning areas. Subject performance varied significantly, with Hindu Religious Education seeing high success rates while Mathematics and Kenyan Sign Language recorded the lowest proportions of learners meeting expectations. Following these results, educational bodies began preparations for the 2026 examination cycle. The Nursing Council of Kenya opened applications for the November 2026 Online Licensure Examinations. Simultaneously, the Teachers Service Commission (TSC) and KNEC initiated personnel assignments for the 2026 KCSE, KJSEA, and KPSEA exams. To maintain integrity, the KNEC CP2 online deployment system was implemented to prevent staff from being assigned to schools where they have worked within the last three years, and teachers are required to declare any conflicts of interest. ## Timeline ### 2026-09-04: Kenya educational bodies announce exam schedules and teacher deployment Kenya's NCK has opened applications for the November 2026 licensure exams, while the TSC and KNEC begin deploying teachers for the 2026 national examination series. 2 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/kenya-educational-bodies-announce-exam-schedules-and-teacher-deployment ### 2026-08-25: KNEC releases 2025 KJSEA, KPSEA, and KCSE feedback reports The Kenya National Examinations Council has released 2025 feedback and school-specific reports for the KJSEA, KPSEA, and KCSE assessments, detailing performance across various subjects. 2 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/knec-releases-2025-kjsea-kpsea-and-kcse-feedback-reports --- Cite as: Kenya national education assessment and examination updates.
