Dear O/level Student and Parent

What is your next step after O/levels? Are you thinking of another 2 to 3 years of A/level school education? Or are you still looking at options after O/ Levels. In a highly competitiv­e world A/ Level alone will not guarantee success.

A/levels – Success not guaranteed

O/ Level results were released few days ago. The big question is what to do after O/ Levels? The traditiona­l A/level option is loosing popularity among parents and students. Annually over 250,000 students sit for Sri Lankan A/levels in four major subject areas of Mathemat i c s, S c i e n c e, Business and Arts. However, less than 10% of them will be selected to pursue higher education in the state university

system.
