This is an update on this particular article. The figures you see were estimates for the 2015 form one admission.
It is with
great determination that Pesa Mashinani estimated the minimum scores for the 2015 form one admission. Take these figures as approximate minimum scores for the 2016 admission.
Important: The indicated scores in this article are based on calculation. The reader is advised not to take them as the official figures because they are not. The minimum scores for admission into cluster 3 national schools are higher than the indicated estimates. The figures are much more beneficial to candidates who sat for KCPE in public primary schools.
Factors that influence cut off mark for a given county
- Number of private schools
The main factor that raises the minimum score is the number of private schools. The higher the number of private school per sub county, the higher the cut off.
Areas which are more developed have a higher number of private schools. This causes the same effect as the first bullet.
