KPSEA exams
KPSEA was administered between October 28 and November 1, with a total of 1,303,913 Grade 6 students across Kenya sitting for the exam.
The exams covered a range of subjects, including Mathematics, English, Integrated Science, Kiswahili, Creative Arts, and Social Studies
All the 1,303,913 candidates who sat the KPSEA across 35,573 centres countrywide will transition to Grade 9, which is still domiciled within their respective primary schools.
The KPSEA is a transitional assessment that evaluates students’ understanding and application of skills.
It is part of the Competency-Based Curriculum (CBC), which is replacing the 8-4-4 system.
Learners will not be ranked, but the KPSEA will account for a 20 per cent score, which will be combined with a 20 per cent school-based assessment in Grades 7 and a 60 per cent summative evaluation to be administered at the end of Grade 9.
Grade 9 will mark the final phase of Junior School, after which learners will transition to Senior School in 2026, where they will have an opportunity to choose career pathways.
There are nine learning areas in Grade 9: English, Kiswahili, Mathematics, CRE/IRE/HRE and Agriculture.
Others are Social studies (History, Geography, Life Skills); Pre-technical studies (Business studies, Computer studies); Creative Arts & Sports (Art/Craft/PE, Visual arts) and Integrated Science (Physics, Chemistry, Biology).
Come 2026, learners will transition to Senior school for a three-year study period that will cover Grades 10, 11, and 12.
At this stage, there will be three core learning areas that will determine learners’ career paths.
These are Arts and Sports Science, Social Sciences, and Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM).
The first core learning area has two tracks – Arts and Sports Science.
Under Arts, learners will study Music and Dance, Theatre and Film and Fine Arts.
Under Sports Science, there is Sports and Recreation and Physical Education.
