November 20, Colombo (LNW):The process of gathering information to assess students’ eligibility for receiving school equipment has commenced, with officials instructed to submit all required data by tomorrow.
Authorities have been directed to prioritize information on low-income families to ensure that children from these households receive the necessary concessions. This initiative aims to support students from economically disadvantaged backgrounds and promote equitable access to educational resources.
President Anura Kumara Dissanayake announced that, starting next year, the government will provide an allowance to school children as part of broader measures to enhance educational support for families in need. This initiative underscores the government’s commitment to ensuring equal opportunities for all students, regardless of their socioeconomic status.
