Send your kids to the best international school in Colombo
by Roger Brendon An avid tea drinker, passionate traveller
As parents we are all eager to give our children the very best of everything. We strive to work hard so they will be able to enjoy a better life. We sacrifice our peace of mind to ensure that they have joy and happiness in their hearts. These are the duties that we lovingly and willingly take on as soon as we are given the incredible title of ‘parents’.
As Sri Lankans, we are all aware of the importance and value of education. Regardless of the social status and economic level, we all were taught the value of education from tender years. Our parents, just like us believed in giving us a better life. As it was their dream to see us in a better position in life, they always encouraged us to study hard and push ourselves and become better individuals. The values and learning that they thus inculcated in our hearts urge us to do the same to our children. We desire to see them flourishing in life, through the good influence of a great school.
More and more parents living in the commercial capital of Sri Lanka are now eager to send their children to international schools in Colombo. Of course, since the educational arena in Sri Lanka was rapidly evolving, a number of international schools also opened up in the recent years. Quite a large percentage of people living in the city have the financial ability to send their children to Colombo international schools too. As the demand for British education in the country started rising, a number of reputed institutions dedicated to the area also opened up.
In this context, parents are quite bewildered with the choice that is offered! Each school claims to be the best in its own unique way. As parents have to spend quite a lot of money to send their children to the international schools, they have to surely ensure that the right decision is made too. Therefore, careful analysis and research has to be conducted on the matter, prior to selecting a school for their children.
Of course, a number of parents are concerned about the proximity of the school to their homes. The traffic in the city can be quite hard to tackle, especially for tired children returning from a long day at school. Hence more and more parents are eager to consider options which are located closer to their homes. The leading international schools in Colombo are generally located in close proximity to the city centre.
It is important to select an international school that encourages the child to become a better version of him/ herself through careful teaching methods too. A child should be given the chance to study the subjects that he/she is fond of. Of course, extracurricular activities that help a child learn the art of socializing and working in teams should also be encouraged at all times. You have to make sure that you select a school that will help your child flourish!
