Please Note: Grades of 18 - 20 are rarely given. There is no grade of D in Benin. However, as with most countries that are patterned after the French educational system, grades of 8 and 9, which are normally failing grades, may be accepted as a "condoned pass" (U.S. grade of D) provided the overall grade average for the year (moyenne general) is 10.0/20, or higher. This is at the discretion of the institution's administrators, and, at the post-secondary level, students may be required to re-take, in a future term, the course for which they received a "condoned pass."

The information below is from the Kenyan National Examinations Council regarding the grading system at Technical colleges
The Kenyan National Examinations Council https://www.knec.ac.ke/ does have an alternative grading scale. We don't actually see it being used but we know it exists with vocational or technical qualifications.. Below is some more information on it:
KNEC grading system for colleges
When it comes to KNEC courses, candidates are awarded scores based on the KNEC grading system for colleges. Below we look at the KNEC grading system for colleges and how the results of examinations are classified.
KNEC grading system for colleges: How KNEC results for technical colleges are awarded
Now, for the whole examination, marks are issued in 5 classes while there are 8 different grades in the individual papers under the KNEC grading system for colleges.
Each candidate receives the results in terms of the class and grade depending on his/her performance in the final practical and theoretical tests and the continuous assessment tests (administered by the college being attended).
Here is the relationship between the various classes and grades according to the KNEC grading system.
Class | Grade |
Pass with distinction | Grade 1 & 2 |
Pass with credit | Grade 3 & 4 |
Pass | Grade 5 & 6 |
Fail | Grade 7 |
Scores | Grade | Class | US Grade Equivalent | US Grade Point Average (GPA) |
80-100 | 1 | Distinction | A | 4.00 |
75-79 | 2 | Distinction | A | 4.00 |
70-74 | 3 | Credit | A- | 3.67 |
60-69 | 4 | Credit | B+ | 3.33 |
50-59 | 5 | Pass | B | 3.00 |
40-49 | 6 | Pass | C | 2.00 |
0-39 | 7 | Fail | F | 0.00 |
You are referred if you score below 39 (essentially meaning you have failed) in a paper in the KNEC exams for colleges and you have to pass the specific failed papers before being awarded with the relevant certificate.
Of course, there is a fee for re-sitting KNEC examinations (charged on per paper basis) and you have to book for a resit via the KNEC online registration for technical exams portal (assisted by your college).
