The Education Cabinet Secretary (CS) George Magoha released the Kenya Certificate of Primary (KCPE) results, yesterday, 18th November 2019, exactly 18 days since the candidates sat their last paper.
The 2019 KCPE results came three days earlier than 2018 results which were released on 21st November 2018. Public schools performed exemplary unlike in previous years when private schools demeaned public schools.
The top candidate in the 2019 KCPE results was Andy Michael Munyiri from Damacrest School, Thogoto topping with 440 marks out of 500 marks
Andy Munyiri was closely followed by Flavian Onyango (Chakol Girls), Sean Michael Ndung’u (Kitengela International) and June Cheptoo (Sang’alo Central) tied at second position two with 439 marks.
CS Magoha noted that the exam was void of any cheating and not a single fake paper was collected.
