The Kenya National Examinations Council (KNEC) is a government agency responsible for overseeing national examinations in Kenya. Established in 1980, KNEC manages the administration, development, and certification of examinations for primary and secondary education. It ensures that assessments are fair, reliable, and standardized across the country. KNEC conducts several key examinations, including the Kenya Certificate of Primary Education (KCPE) and the Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (KCSE). These exams are crucial for students' academic progression and are used for admission into higher education institutions. KNEC also plays a role in curriculum development and educational research.
