DP Education Celebrates Its 6th Anniversary: Six Years of Transforming Sri Lanka’s Education Landscape

Date:

Sri Lanka’s leading online education platform, DP Education, celebrates its 6th anniversary today (October 18).

DP Education is a massive social initiative launched by the Dhammika and Priscilla Perera Foundation, funded by the country’s leading entrepreneur and philanthropist Dhammika Perera and his wife Priscilla Perera.

From preschool to Advanced Level, the platform offers students across the island the opportunity to study a wide range of essential subjects completely free of charge, taught by the best teachers in Sri Lanka through online learning.

The platform also covers Pirivena (monastic) education syllabi and focuses on vocational education. One of its most notable programs, DP Education IT Campus, aims to raise computer literacy among Sri Lankan youth and create a large number of employment opportunities in the information technology sector.

In addition, DP Education operates a language school that provides pathways to local and international employment opportunities. Students can learn multiple languages — including English, Japanese, and Italian — up to internationally recognized examination standards.

Beyond this, DP Education continues to implement numerous annual initiatives designed to elevate Sri Lanka’s education system to a global standard and make education more accessible and engaging for children across the nation.

Recognized both locally and internationally, DP Education marks its 6th anniversary as a proud milestone in its educational journey.

Below is a statement from Dhammika Perera, Co-Chairman of DP Education, marking this special occasion:

“As we celebrate six years of our educational mission today, we take great pride in the path we have traveled — providing quality education to every student in Sri Lanka.

When we began this initiative in 2019 with the vision of offering free, high-quality education equally to every child in Sri Lanka, we aimed to transform lives. By 2025, DP Education has become a powerful nationwide movement achieving that very goal.

This anniversary, marking our launch on October 18, 2019, is not just a reminder of our accomplishments, but a reaffirmation of our unwavering vision — to continue building a future generation equipped with knowledge and skills to lead the world.

Our strategic plan for the next five years (2025–2030) will further strengthen this mission.”
