The Kenya National Examination Council (KNEC) has officially released the 2024 Kenya Primary School Education Assessment (KPSEA) reports. In a statement issued on Tuesday evening, KNEC urged schools that participated in the assessment to access the learner-specific reports through the Competency-Based Assessment (CBA) portal.
“The 2024 Kenya Primary School Education Assessment (KPSEA) reports are ready and have been uploaded on the CBA portal, http://cba.knec.ac.ke,” read the statement. Schools were further advised to log into the portal to retrieve the reports, with KNEC extending congratulations to all the 2024 KPSEA candidates for their participation and performance.
The KPSEA assessment is a key component of Kenya’s Competency-Based Curriculum (CBC) framework, designed to evaluate learners’ competencies in a variety of subjects. In 2024, over 1.3 million Grade 6 students across 35,573 centers nationwide sat for the KPSEA examinations, held between October 28 and November 1.
The assessments covered six key learning areas: Mathematics, English, Kiswahili, Integrated Science, Creative Arts, and Social Studies. These subjects are vital in assessing both academic knowledge and practical skills as part of the CBC’s focus on holistic development.
All 1,303,913 students who participated in the exams are set to transition to Grade 7, which remains housed within their respective primary schools under the current education system.
KNEC emphasized that the KPSEA results offer valuable insights into learners’ strengths and areas for improvement, enabling schools, teachers, and parents to support their academic and personal growth effectively.
The release of the KPSEA reports marks another milestone in the implementation of the CBC, reaffirming the government’s commitment to nurturing competencies that will prepare learners for a dynamic world. Schools are expected to use the reports to enhance learning and teaching strategies, ensuring that learners are equipped with essential skills for future success.
This is a pivotal moment for Kenyan education, as the country continues its journey towards a more skills-oriented and learner-centered curriculum.
