Truth about international schools outside of the elite colombo ones..

It’s unfortunate to see how international schools have turned out to be, once places where kids could get Cambridge/edexcel education and learn English with decent teachers have become sh!t shows that are money grabs. Getting a proper international school to learn outside of the elite ones (CIS, moir, overseas, British school Colombo) is extremely hard to almost impossible. And let’s be real, the schools I listed above are only for the 1% in the country who can actually afford it and an average Sri Lankan can’t afford such high fees including upper middle class family’s even. There were once many schools like Lyceum which were excellent and affordable for majority of people but now all of them are overtaken by some horrendous individuals and and now treat students as numbers so now middle class families can’t even get minimum level proper education if they wanna have a better chance at sending there kid abroad or simply don’t want them in a local school without problems like teacher turnover, terrible management and more. I’m not sure if I’m the only one who thinks this but I honestly felt this for some time now considering the fact that so many international schools have changed throughout the years.
