Minister of Education Bandula Gunawardena stated that the monthly allowance for students of National Colleges of Education (NCoE) will be raised to Rs 4,000.
“It will be a revolutionary step forward in the history of the Colleges of Education,” he said at the sixth stage of the “Divineguma” held at Siyane College of Education in Gampaha this week,

“Students of our NCoE are among the brightest. But it is unfortunate, and unfair, that they should be restricted by a Diploma which doesn’t allow them to be anything other than teachers.”

He assured that steps will soon be taken to extend the training period by an additional year and the Diploma upgraded to a Degree. (YY)
