KCSE 2023 Results To Be Released Tomorrow. The 903,260 applicants who sat for the 2023 KCSE (Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education) exam now have their results available.
At the exclusive Mitihani House early tomorrow, cabinet secretary for education Ezekiel Machogu will make the announcement of the results.
Unlike in previous years, the Kenya Education Management Information System (KEMIS) portal—which was launched by the CS—allows users to view the results of the 2023 KCSE.
Parents and candidates must visit the portal and enter their KCSE names and index numbers in order to access the results.

The CS stated that there are three reasons for the protracted wait for the results.
The results were supposed to be made public on Friday, December 29th, but CS Machogu called off the exercise,stating that compilation, validation, and verification were still ongoing.
“The marking process is now complete. Right now, we’re gathering the grades, validating them, and verifying them. It’s quite the procedure, as you know, in order for us to publish reliable results at the end of the day,” Machogu stated in a special interview.
However, a new grading system designed to increase the number of kids enrolling in universities will favor the 2023 KCSE applicants.
In August, the new grading scheme was announced. The Presidential Working Party’s recommended grading scheme for education reforms emphasizes students’ strengths in certain disciplines while reducing the number of required subjects.
Students will receive grades based on their achievement in mathematics and two other required disciplines,which can be any language, such as national sign language, kiswahili, or English.
However, this time around, there will just be two required subjects: English language and mathematics, together with Kiswahili or National Sign Language.
We’re doing this to let students pursue the disciplines they excel in,” he said.
According to him, students have varying degrees of aptitude, with some excelling in the social sciences, the arts, sports, and STEM fields (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics).
