KNEC announces new security measures to curb exam cheating

Kenya's National Examination Council (KNEC) has announced new security measures aimed at curbing the rampant cases of exam leakage.  

The new measures include the random selection of many examination set questions produced for every paper. 

The stored papers in protected stations will be wrapped to avoid easy access.

Other measures are examination  papers will only be flown into the country one week before the exams and  each page of every  question paper to be used by the candidates will have specific watermark barcodes ,  meaning if people take a picture and that picture is found it can be traced back to the original paper.  

The new security  measures comes after the country's schools exam board was dissolved over "irregularities" in the secondary school exams, which saw  five thousand results cancelled.
