View(s):

The Ministry of Education (MoE) last week said it intends to increase the number of Grade 5 Scholarships offered to students in 2018. MoE Secretary Sunil Hettiarachchi said the decision was due to the excellent results received by the students in the last several years.

He said that, in recognition of this effort by the students, the MoE, from next year, will double the intake from 15,000 to 30,000. However, the MoE said that, in view of the difficulties to find popular schools for such a large number, the successful students, instead, will be afforded financial assistance for their education. – CC
