Knec to transport 2021 Examiners in school buses to marking centres

The Kenya National Examinations Council (Knec) has organized elaborate transportation plans for the 2021 Examiners. According to a KNEC document on how examiners will access their marking centres, the Council outlines how school buses will be used to ferry the examiners.

“All county commissioners to provide transport for examiners to travel to Nairobi using school bus(s) to be fueled by KNEC through respective county directors of education.” The logistic instructions read; in part.

Since Nairobi is on lock down, Examiners would have hard difficulties accessing the marking centres as movement in and out of the capital city is prohibited.

In the past, Examiners could arrange for personal transport and then get fare reimbursement upon reporting to the marking centres.

KCPE examiners will be travelling to the marking centres between 30th March,2021 and Travel date to Nairobi 2nd April,2021. The Council has designated Regional Coordinators to oversee the transportation. Examiners will be required to report to the respective County Commissioners’ offices on the travelling days at 6.00am.
