  • we administer a wide range of English language examinations, including IELTS, the University of Cambridge Local Examinations Syndicate (UCLES) main suite examinations and the Cambridge Young Learner Tests (CYLT).

  • our libraries in Colombo and Kandy provide the latest in materials and information to teachers and learners of English.
