Revised School Calender 2023.The Ministry of Education has adjusted the 2023 school calendar in a move that will see school opening and closing dates, as well national exam dates, change.
The Kenya Certificate of Primary Education (KCPE) and Kenya Primary School Education Assessment (KPSEA) exams will now begin on October 30 and end on November 2, according to a circular issued by Education Principal Secretary Belio Kipsang.
On November 3 and through November 24, the Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (KCSE) exams will be held. The preliminary calendar indicated that the KCSE would occur from November 10 to December 1.
Half-term and long holidays
Students will now take a half-term vacation from March 16 to March 19 before the school closes on April 22, 2023, for the long weekend. At first, classes were scheduled to break on March 23 and reconvene on March 26.
After a half-term break that will go from June 29 to July 2, students will return to class on May 8 for the start of Term 2, a 14-week period. From August 12 through August 27, schools will be out of session for a period of two weeks.
The shortest term in the academic calendar, Term Three, begins for students on August 28 after the two-week break. There will therefore be no break during this term, which runs through October 27.
The KCSE examination session will last three weeks, and the KCPE and KPSEA exams will take place four days later.
The circular states that the KCSE marking period will run from November 27 to December 15.
The second term will run from January 23 to April 21 for students in teacher preparation programmes who finished their first term last year.
