The government has stepped up supervision of the 2026 Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (KCSE) examinations, with renewed attention on the security of examination materials and strict enforcement of examination regulations.
Principal Secretary for Basic Education John Ololtuaa on Friday led an inspection exercise in Narok Central Sub-County, where he witnessed the opening of a Kenya National Examinations Council (KNEC) examination container and the distribution of papers to centre managers.
After the distribution, Ololtuaa toured Ole Tipis Girls, Ilmashariani Secondary School, Narok Boys High School and Maasai Girls High School to monitor the administration of the day's papers.
The inspections were aimed at assessing compliance with examination procedures and ensuring that candidates sat their papers under the prescribed conditions.
The intensified oversight comes as the national examination enters its final phase, with education officials expected to maintain vigilance until the last paper is administered.
The State Department for Basic Education has reiterated its commitment to ensuring that examinations are administered smoothly, securely and in line with established guidelines.
Ololtuaa said the government remained focused on safeguarding the integrity and credibility of national examinations across the country.
He wished candidates success as they continued sitting their papers and urged them to remain focused throughout the examination period.
