Students and parents can now access the 2023 Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (KCSE) results through an online portal. 

This was announced by the Kenya National Examinations Council (KNEC), during the release of the 2023 KCSE results in Eldoret, Uasin Gishu County. 

"Individual 2023 KCSE candidates' examination results will be accessed online through a link on the KNEC website or directly through the URL: results.knec.ac.ke," a statement from KNEC read in part. 

"You will be required to enter the candidate's index number and the name (s) as per the registration data for the 2023 KCSE examination."

After entering the Index Number of the candidates, you will be prompted to submit the information. 

If the details provided are correct, the 2023 KCSE results will be displayed on the screen. 

Official result slips will be accessible through examination centres where the candidates sat for their exams. 

Unlike in previous years, candidates will not be able to access the 2023 KCSE results through SMS code. 

CS Machogu announced that the Ministry of Education had discontinued the use of SMS service to check national examination results. 

"We have engaged engineers to make sure the system works perfectly unlike the other time we witnessed issues with the SMS code," Machogu explained. 

In total, 903,260 candidates sat for the 2023 KCSE exams and will be proceeding to different institutions as placed by the Kenya Universities and Colleges Central Placement Service (KUCCPS).
