Marking of Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (KCSE) examination scripts in some centres was temporarily stopped after examiners protested terms introduced by Kenya National Examinations Council.
The Standard established that the teachers objected to a new rule by Knec that reviewed an advance payment of about Sh20,000, often given to the teachers before they exit marking centres.
The teachers also declined another proposal by Knec to reduce the advance payment by half.
The examiners also wanted the transport reimbursement increased, saying the cost of travel went up due to the Covid-19 travel restrictions.
