Education CS Prof. George Magoha released the 2020 KCPE exam results today with the best candidate scoring 433 marks out of 500.
While announcing the results, CS Magoha noted that the 2020 candidates performed well considering they sat the examination during the pandemic that interfered learning for almost nine months.

Magoha pointed out that all the 1,179,192 candidates who sat the exam had qualified for admission to secondary school.
“As I have noted, we are today releasing results for 1,179,192 candidates who sat the examination in 28,460 centres across the country. All these
