The Ministry of Education has released the revised and final school academic calendar for 2024; for pre-primary, primary, secondary schools and teachers training colleges with reporting dates set for January 8 across the four levels. 

Students will be reporting after a 10-week break party triggered by assessments administered by the Kenya National Examinations Council (KNEC).

Pre-school, primary school, and secondary schools will have a first term lasting 13 weeks and a half term lasting 3 days between February 29 and March 3, 2024.

“Term two will run for 12 weeks, starting on 13th May to 2nd August, 2024 with the half term set for 26th – 28th June, 2024,” the ministry stated in a bulletin detailing term dates released on Friday.

The third term, which runs from August 26 to October 25, 2024, will be the shortest, lasting just 9 weeks. Learners will then take a break and resume on January 3, 2025.

KNEC-administered Kenya Intermediate Education Assessment (KILEA) and Kenya Primary School Education Assessment (KPSEA) will start on October 28 through October 31, 2024.

“Exams for the Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (KCSE) will be held from November 4 to November 22, 2024,” read the report.

Teachers’ training colleges will end their first term on 5th April, 2024 and break for holidays from 8th to 26th April 2024.
