Dear Parent/Guardian,
Confirming your child’s KJSEA (Kenya Junior Secondary Education Assessment) placement online is simple if you follow these steps carefully. This guide includes tips for first-time users.
Step 1: Visit the Official Placement Portal
Open your web browser and go to the Ministry of Education’s school selection website: https://selection.education.go.ke/my-selections
Tip: Use a computer or tablet if possible for easier navigation. Mobile phones also work, but screen size may make reading the details harder.
Step 2: Enter the Learner’s Details
Locate the login section on the portal and enter the following details carefully:
-
Assessment Number (not the KCPE index number)
-
One registered name (first or last) if requested
Tip: Double-check the spelling of the name and ensure the assessment number matches the one on your child’s KJSEA registration slip. Incorrect entries may prevent access to the placement result.
Step 3: View the Placement Result
Click Submit or Search after entering the details. The portal will display:
-
Assigned Senior Secondary School
-
Selected Pathway (STEM, Arts & Sports Science, Social Sciences, etc.)
Tip: If the portal shows “No placement found,” check that the details are correct. Some results may take a few minutes to load, so refresh the page if necessary.
Step 4: Save or Print the Confirmation
Once the placement appears, download the confirmation PDF or take a screenshot. Keep a copy for your records, as you may need it during school reporting or registration.
Tip: Save the file in a folder labeled with your child’s name and KJSEA year to avoid losing it.
Step 5: Troubleshooting and Support
-
Forgot Assessment Number: Contact the school your child sat for KJSEA or the Ministry of Education helpline.
-
Technical Issues: Try a different browser (Chrome, Edge, Firefox) or clear the cache and cookies.
-
Incorrect Placement: Contact the Ministry of Education using the contact details on the portal.
Summary
Confirming your child’s KJSEA placement online involves visiting the official portal, entering the learner’s details accurately, viewing the assigned school and pathway, and saving or printing the confirmation for records. By following this guide, parents and guardians can complete the placement confirmation safely and efficiently.
