It is true that more than 4000 schools are vacant for principal post and even the majority of principlas who are currently working in schools are politically appointed without propr qualifications. The Government called applications for Principal Grade 2-II & Grade III Exams in 2005 and they were held in 2006. The most unfortunate thing happend was that the MoE wanted to give appointments to their political supporters together with those who passed th written exam. As a result, those who passed the exam are still waiting for their suspended appointments to be reactivated, while the Supreme court has given a decision to appoint the candidates who scored mor than 155 marks @ the written exam. The MoE is still sleeping. Out of 323 National schools, 86 National schools are running without principals. Media are criticizing the lethgic behaviour of the Minister of Education everyday….. H.E President… We appeal you … Please tke a prompt action against this

The Minister of Justice and National Integration of Sri Lanka presented a draft bill to amend the Penal code on August 19, 2025, with the aim of preventing children from being subjected to corporal punishment in schools. The bill was read in Parliament for the first and second time and is now expected to be referred to the Sectoral Oversight Committee (SOC) on Governance, Justice and Civil Protection.

Overreach by activists killed the corporal punishment ban bill?
