Teachers’ trade unions in Sri Lanka say many more teachers are afraid of marking A/L answer papers as a result of their boycott being challenged in the court.
Â
 The trade unions that stage a boycott of marking the papers were ordered by the Supreme Court not to intimidate or force those who are marking the papers to join their action.Â
Wasantha Dharmasiri, General Secretary of Education Professionals Association (EPA), said many teachers who did not join the boycott are now fearful whether they would be sued if they make any mistake.Â
A trade union action by 12,000 teachers was converted into a mass scale protest by 225,000 education professionals as a result of the court action, he said.Â
Five major teachers’ unions say they are planning to stage an island-wide boycott on 13 September.Â
The Commissioner of Examinations announced that the marking to be commenced on 13 September after the Supreme Court ruling.Â
However, the EPA says the ruling has no impact on their trade union action.Â

Press Release #11: Schools should reopen at the first opportunity, but with reduced examination pressures- 22 September 2021 (In English/Sinhala/Tamil)
The urgency of getting children back to school at the first opportunity is accepted worldwide, but Covid-19 has also brought three other issues to the fore internationally – (1) Ethics of conducting competitive examinations when significant portions of the students have been left out of education (2) Wisdom of continuing same old education when a full return to normalcy is not in sight (3) The need for combining face-2-face and distance mode of teaching and learning as the new normal. Meanwhile here in Sri Lanka, our Ministry of Education goes about as if it is business as usual.
