4 reasons to choose English medium

  1. 01

    No IT degree is taught in Sinhala

    Every IT, Computer Science and Software Engineering degree — state or private — is taught only in English.

    • Moratuwa
    • Kelaniya
    • Sri Jayewardenepura
    • SLIIT
    • IIT

    Sinhala-medium students often struggle through their first year, even with an A at A/L.

  2. 02

    Code is written in English

    Programming languages, documentation and developer tools are all in English.

    • Python
    • Java
    • C++
    • SQL
    • MDN Docs
    • Stack Overflow

    Learn a loop or a database table in Sinhala and you must re-learn every term before writing one line of code.

    Interviews, technical tests and daily work — from local firms to multinationals — all happen in English.

    Choosing English medium now directly raises your employability.
