Kenya National Examinations Council (Knec) has barred non-teachers from being supervisors or invigilators in national examinations starting November as it moves to eliminate malpractices. In the guidelines to field officers, county directors of education and centre managers who are undergoing one-week training, only qualified teachers that will be allowed to manage the examinations.
“Knec still gets unqualified personnel supervising and invigilating in some examination centres,” said Knec acting chief executive Mercy Karogo in a brief to officers.
