Assessment and the transition

CBE uses school-based projects, practical work, and written assessments. Grade 10 school-based assessments are distinct from KCSE, which continues for the remaining 8-4-4 secondary cohorts.

Always follow the latest KNEC subject timetable and the school’s approved assessment instructions.
