Concerns have emerged over the mid-year Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (KCSE) special exams for repeat and absentee candidates as registration enters its third day today.
With forced repetition banned by the government, questions are emerging about whether the targeted learners will be allowed to sit in class with the rest of the candidates as they await to sit the tests.
Questions are also emerging about whether these candidates will be allowed to bypass the July exams and write the KCSE tests with the present form fours at the end of the year.
Also raised is the question of whether the government will pay repeaters tuition fees, given that the Kenya National Examination Council (KNEC) considers the learners as private candidates.
