List: Top 100 students in 2017 KCSE

Fifty four (54) male candidates made it to the top 100 list of students who performed exemplary well in the 2017 Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (KCSE).

The 2017 KCSE results were released at the Nairobi School on Wednesday, December 20 by Education Cabinet Secretary Dr Fred Matiang’i.

WHY STUDENTS WERE RANKED IN 2017 KCSE

Parliament passed law in August, 2016 reverting to school and candidate ranking in national exams.

Last year on December 1, when releasing Kenya Certificate of Primary Education (KCPE) results, Mr Matiang’i said that the Ministry of Education was not in a position to rank schools or candidates then because “it did not manage to work in time on a proposal of ranking students or schools’ performances in this year’s (2016) national exam, thus the proposal was not presented before Parliament for approval”.

The education CS, however, noted that the ministry would present the model of ranking to Parliament for approval.
