SRI LANKA ~ School Girls ~

... Lovely view of a group of happy students posing and smiling in front of the camera in uniform... the future of Sri Lanka is its youth...  and that future depends on access to a quality education in a safe and nurturing environment... Thanks a lot Ravindra!!❁◕ ‿ ◕❁

Sri Lanka's education structure is divided into five parts: primary, junior secondary, senior secondary, collegiate and tertiary.


Due to the variety of ethnic groups in Sri Lanka, many schools teach only in either Sinhala medium or in Tamil medium and not the English medium. The elite colleges in major cities such as Colombo and Kandy, teach in all three media.
