In Kisii County, more than 40 students in a private school, Upridge Mixed, will not sit for the exam because they were not registered. Mr David Ong'au, the manager, said that they failed to register the students because of non-payment of fees and absenteeism.

Area education officer Martin Mwalo asked parents to be checking with his office or the schools whether their children had been registered to avoid such scenarios.

In Nyamira County, the exams were received amid fears that the heavy rains in the region may be a big challenge.

In Gucha, rehearsals took place amid stern warnings to the students against cheating in the exam. Last year, the region saw a high number of results cancelled due to exam irregularities.
