Form Four practical examinations have been scheduled to start tomorrow Monday.
The practical exams will run until November 2 and pave way for theory papers that will begin on November 6 and end on November 29.
This year, some 615,773 candidates registered for the Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (KCSE) exam that will be done in 9,350 exam centres across the country.
Papers lined up for this week include Arabic, German, French (oral and braille), Kenya Sign Language (practical skills), Music, and Building and Construction.
The Home Science paper earlier scheduled for Thursday has been moved to Monday the second week to pave the way for the repeat presidential election as most schools serve as polling and tallying centres.
“This is in recognition of the fact that a number of schools are gazetted polling stations and tallying centres for the elections,” said Education Cabinet Secretary Fred Matiang’i when he met deputy county commissioners and sub-county directors of education in Nairobi.
