The Kenya National Union of Teachers (KNUT) has called for the cancellation of KCSE results released last year by Education CS Fred Matiang'i.
KNUT Secretary General Wilson Sossion, has said the results are full of anomalies and should be reviewed in order to award students their right marks.
The Union has now petitioned President Uhuru Kenyatta and parliament to look into the results.
According to Sossion, the union conducted investigations and discovered that due process was not followed in marking and releasing KCSE results where only 141 As were recorded.
“We were shocked at the curve. It is not a normal curve. So we launched investigations as a union and we have consulted widely, even inside government, and the narrative is the same – that these results are not a true reflection of the candidates’ performance,” Sossion is quoted by the Standard.
Sossion said that Matiang'i rushed to released the results in order to raise his profile publicly.
“We hereby, honestly and in the spirit of patriotism to the country demand immediate recall of KCSE results and be taken through a due process of moderation and grading appropriately by chief examiners at the subject level,” the letter to parliament and Uhuru read in part.
