Children from the ages of 6- 13 years,   are offered a unique opportunity to enhance their communication skills in English and develop their personalities whilst obtaining   a prestigious   internationally acclaimed certificate.

English   for  Young Learners,  with international benchmarks from City and Guilds, International,  UK, is one of the key courses on offer at the Rainbow Institute of Communication and English.

The institute set up recently,   at No 44/1,   Haig Road, Bambalapitya,  is led by a group of Sri Lankans with strong professional and academic credentials.  The team is committed to empower children, youth and adults with communication skills in English.
This is a timely initiative mooted by national university academics, corporate trainers  and senior teachers who have  set up the Rainbow Institute of Communication and English (www.rainbow.lk),   affiliated to City and Guilds, International, UK.

The institute is headed by Manique Mendis, a leading Communication specialist, with more than twenty five years of senior management experience in local and international organizations. Sandra Fernando, a literary personality with long experience in teaching in International schools in Sri Lanka and overseas, is providing leadership for quality assurance benchmarking and academic development. The well known academic,  Dr Mahim Mendis, a British Chevening Scholar with postgraduate research degrees from UK, USA and Singapore is the chief educational adviser of the institute.

“The Rainbow Institute of Communication and English is filling a vacuum   for high quality teaching at an affordable price,  in a context where  private sector education has become a highly commercialized  commodity”, stated Dr Mahim Mendis.
