Kenya National Examinations Council (KNEC) declared Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (KCSE) 2015 results on Thursday. The results of many schools were excellent and most of the students performed well in the examination. The schools or candidates were not ranked, a trend that has been going for the past three years as the Education Cabinet Fred Matiangi is no longer allowed to rate schools and candidates according to their performance as a ban was placed by the ministry in 2014 on the ranking to curb cut-throat competition among institutions.
