Bandaranayake College principal appointment done according to standard procedure: Prime Minister
View(s):A standard policy and procedure are followed when appointing principals to all schools, Prime Minister Harini Amarasuriya has said.
She was responding to a question raised by an opposition MP in parliament about an issue that had arisen at Bandaranayake College in Gampaha.
The Prime Minister claimed that previous governments had made the process of appointing school principals a problematic matter.
“Without a proper procedure, acting principals were appointed, leading to prolonged unfairness for both the teachers and the schools leaving the school administration system to a problematic state,” she alleged.
“Currently a proper procedure is followed in correcting the system according to existing regulations. Principals are being appointed to all national schools and vacancies through interviews conducted in line with qualifications required for the position,” she said.
“We do not treat schools differently; every school is governed under the same policy and procedure. The principal appointment at Bandaranayake College, Gampaha, was also carried out according to this standard procedure,” she said.
