    Schooling for ages 5 to 14 is compulsory in Sri Lanka. The five stages of education in Sri Lanka include: primary, junior secondary, senior secondary, collegiate and tertiary [8]. Even though Sri Lanka claims a total adult literacy rate of 91.2% and a total youth literacy rate of 98.15% [9], it still faces challenges in its free education system. One of the main challenges Sri Lanka faces is tertiary education pressure. The tertiary enrolment ratio is only 6% out of which only 2% are full-time students (refer to Appendix 2). Also, there are only 13 universities with the capability to admit 13,000 students annually against the 75,000 students requiring admission each year. A large number of students seeking free education in state universities are being denied admission due to limited places available [10]. Talking about free education in general, children from financially stable families tend to stay longer in schools than children from poorer backgrounds (refer to Appendix 3). This is because of the other costs apart from tuition fees like uniforms, transport, stationery etc. [11]. Mr. Rohan Senarath, the Executive Director of Coalition for Education Development and former Save the Children in Sri Lanka programme specialist for education sums up the reasons for such problems in his article which includes: teacher biases/personal choices, struggle for lower income families, family mind-set of supporting

  • Why Students Should Be Paid To Attend School?

    School can be frustrating for students. Going to school, doing homework, and then repeating it all over again the next day can become quite tedious. Especially when one feels as if they are not gaining anything from doing well in school, it causes students to have very little motivation to complete their schoolwork. Students might be motivated if there was some sort of incentive for attending school and doing well at it. A law should be passed that requires students to be paid for doing well in school because it gives them motivation, helps them with financial issues, and allows them to learn how to manage money more effectively.

    Free education allows everyone to study but with low intensity or levels of education. For example, governments with low incomes would not have enough money to employ professional teachers or provide students with all the technological equipment necessary in their studies; it is too expensive. In addition, with free education, the number of students will be impressive. It is important to emphasize that education is not the only responsibility that governments have. They also economically support other public institutions. According to OECD (2008), the major challenge for countries is to secure sufficient funding levels to enable tertiary education institutions to meet the growing expectations of society and respond to the growing demand by students.
