සිංහල මාධ්යAre you doing A/Ls in Sinhala medium?
You can still do ICT in English. The terms in ICT are English anyway: RAM, CPU, IP address, Python. Many of our A-grade students and rankers came from Sinhala medium and sit ICT in English.
For our students making that switch, we added the Sinhala medium Paper I and II for 2011–2026. Read a paper in Sinhala, answer it in English, and the English terms stick.

How to use them
Do a full paper under exam timing, then mark it yourself with the marking scheme. The marking scheme shows exactly which words and steps earn marks, which is often what separates a B from an A.
In class we go through past papers question by question. See class times.
