Schools to close for 10 Weeks In 3rd Term Holiday

The school calendar for Term 3 in all years tends to be shorter than Term 1 and Term 2 according to Ministry of Education, resulting in an earlier closure of schools.

For example, in 2023, Term 1 lasted for 13 weeks, and Term 2 covered a period of 14 consecutive weeks. In contrast, Term 3, 2023, will only consist of 9 weeks of in-school learning, with the remaining time dedicated to national examinations.

Term 3, 2023, began on August 28th and is expected to conclude on October 27, 2023. During this term, there will be no half-term break for both teachers and learners across all schools.

For learners not taking National Exams, the December holiday will start from October 28, 2023, and extend to January 8, 2024.

Regarding the official national examinations period in 2023:

– KCPE candidates and Grade Six learners (KPSEA) will sit for their Knec exams from October 30, 2023, to November 2, 2023.

– The 2023 KCSE examinations will commence on November 3, 2023, and conclude on November 24, 2023.

– All the marking of National Exams is expected to be completed by December 15, 2023.
