Parents of over one million candidates who took the 2023 Kenya Certificate of Primary Education (KCPE) examinations can access the 2024 form one placement results via the Ministry of Education website.
On Monday morning, Education Cabinet Secretary Ezekiel Machogu released the results at Lenana School in Nairobi following a two-week placement exercise conducted by the ministry.
The CS said the placements followed candidate choices and other criteria.
“Some students were placed in schools of equivalent standing outside their counties. This includes those from counties with inadequate capacity,” Machogu said.
Candidates will now transition to secondary schools either within their respective counties or beyond.
The CS reiterated the government’s commitment to ensuring a complete transition to secondary education, emphasizing that the fees for both day and boarding schools will remain unchanged.

“I assure Kenyans that this website has been tested and proven and is 100% accurate. It is in operation,” Machogu said.
Machogu emphasized that the government has sufficient capacity to accommodate all 1.4 million candidates who took the recent KCPE examination.
The CS also assured parents that there would be no increase in fees next year as their children transition to secondary school.
“Gov’t upholds its commitment to providing free day secondary education which includes allocation for tuition and operation expenses. The fees charged in secondary schools will remain unchanged in 2024. Schools will continue to receive funds based on accurate enrolment data,” said CS Machogu.
