Triple celebrations at Gateway Graduate School
View(s):Providing education from foundation level all the way up to graduation, the Gateway Group has built a reputation of being not only one of the largest but also one of the most trusted educational institutions in Sri Lanka. Gateway now opens new horizons in tertiary education through its Graduate School offering students an affordable option of either obtaining internationally recognised degrees right here in Sri Lanka or transferring to overseas universities in New Zealand, UK, USA or Australia at the end of every academic year.
Gateway Graduate School unveiled its newest facility in Colombo at No: 26, Mc Leod Road, (bordering Duplication Road) Bambalapitiya. This conveniently located Graduate School and the already existing Graduate Schools in Rajagiriya, Kandy and Negombo provide state of the art facilities with qualified and experienced staff drawn from the industry.
A year ago, Gateway Graduate School together with Edexcel International introduced an exciting new teacher teaching course to offer a recognized qualification to all teachers and to improve the standards of teaching in international and private schools throughout Sri Lanka. The first intake that has completed their course of study received the Edexcel Professional Diploma in Teaching. Ms. Isabel Sutcliffe, Director of Regulations, Standards and Research of Edexcel was present to distribute certificates to the teachers who successfully completed the Diploma. Mr. Suriya Bibile, Regional Development Manager, Edexcel – Sri Lanka, Maldives & Pakistan too was present at the occasion. In this short period of time Gateway has had four intakes in Colombo and two intakes in Kandy. Plans are underway to commence training in Negombo within the next few months.
Another important step that Gateway has taken is to sign a Memorandum of Understanding with the Nottingham Trent University, UK. Professor Nigel Healey, Pro-Vice-Chancellor (International) of the Nottingham Trent University signed the MoU with Dr. Harsha Alles, the Director of the Gateway Group. The two institutions will develop articulation pathways in many areas of study. Plans are already afoot to provide an articulation pathway to the Diploma holders in teaching to complete a BA in Education here in Sri Lanka.
