Education CS Julius Ogamba has confirmed that KJSEA 2025 results will be released in December. Learn about how the assessments work, the grading process, and how learners will transition to senior school.
The Ministry of Education has announced that the Kenya Junior Secondary Education Assessment (KJSEA) results for 2025 will be released in December. Education CS Julius Ogamba confirmed that KNEC is finalizing the marking and moderation process to ensure fairness and transparency.
The KJSEA targets Grade 9 learners under the CBC system. It serves as a transition assessment before they join senior school, forming a key milestone in the new 2-6-3-3-3 education structure.
Unlike the KCSE, which determines university placement, the KJSEA evaluates learners’ mastery of core competencies developed in junior school. The subjects assessed include Mathematics, English, Kiswahili, Social Studies, Integrated Science, and Pre-Technical Studies.
The assessment is designed to identify learners’ career paths and aptitudes — whether academic, technical, or artistic — helping guide placement into senior school tracks such as STEM, Arts, or Technical Education.
How to Access the KJSEA 2025 Results
CS Ogamba confirmed that the KJSEA results will be available online via the KNEC portal and through official SMS shortcodes. Each learner’s report will detail performance levels across competencies rather than traditional letter grades.
Schools will use this feedback to tailor learning approaches and prepare learners for the next stage of education.
Impact on the Future of CBC Education
The 2025 KJSEA results are expected to reflect how effectively the CBC model is equipping learners with critical thinking, innovation, and practical skills. Experts say the results will influence curriculum adjustments and teacher training in 2026.
