Sri Lanka, July 23 -- The government is moving away from an exam-centric education system towards a modular system focused on active learning, with the aim of providing quality education for all children, Education Minister Dr. Harini Amarasuriya said.

Speaking during a media briefing held at the Ministry of Education to outline the new education reforms set to be implemented from 2026, the Minister noted that Sri Lanka's traditional approach to education where students, teachers, and parents primarily prepare for examinations is set to change.

"In the modular system, children engage in various learning activities and are continuously assessed, rather than preparing solely for one final exam," she explained.
