Replacing outdated tuition with dynamic short courses and certified programs based on the Sri Lankan government school syllabus.

WELCOME TO GDS

General Directorate of Schools

The General Directorate of Schools (GDS) is a revolutionary educational initiative dedicated to transforming how school students engage with learning. By aligning with the national syllabus approved by the UBE (Universal Bureau of Education), GDS has reimagined traditional education as structured short courses. These courses are designed to make the government school curriculum more interactive, accessible, and career-focused—empowering students to study in a modern, course-based format that encourages deeper understanding and practical application.

Through this transformation, GDS is not just delivering education but reshaping it. Moving away from conventional tuition methods, it introduces certified learning pathways that provide students with recognized qualifications and real value. With expert-led instruction, personalized pacing, and digital accessibility, GDS stands at the forefront of Sri Lanka’s educational future—bridging the gap between school education and professional readiness.
