Chairman's Message

Chairman

Dr. Shantha Geethadewa

Chairman/ Founder

At British Way International School Kandy our vision has always been clear—to build a school that stands as a benchmark for excellence, discipline, and integrity in education. From the very beginning, our goal was not simply to establish a school, but to create a platform where young individuals are shaped into confident, capable, and principled leaders of tomorrow. We recognized that the future demands more than academic success; it requires resilience, character, global awareness, and the ability to think beyond boundaries.
Our commitment is long-term and unwavering. We continue to invest in quality—quality in teaching, in systems, in leadership, and in the overall student experience. Every decision we make is guided by a single principle: to uphold standards that parents can trust and students can be proud of.
We firmly believe that a great school is built on strong foundations—clear vision, consistent discipline, and a culture that values excellence at every level. At BWIS Kandy, these principles are not statements; they are practices embedded into our daily operations.
As Chairman, I take immense pride in the progress we have made and the reputation we continue to build. However, our journey does not stop here. We are continuously evolving, raising our standards, and expanding our vision to meet the demands of a rapidly changing world.
British Way International School Kandy is more than a School it is a commitment to quality education and a promise for a better future.
I invite you to be part of this journey.

Bharatha Iddawela

Principal

It is both an honour and a privilege to welcome you to British Way International School Kandy.
At BWIS, we are committed to upholding a tradition of academic distinction grounded in intellectual rigour, disciplined inquiry, and an unwavering pursuit of excellence. Our philosophy of education reflects the finest principles of an internationally benchmarked, British-oriented curriculum—where depth of understanding is valued above mere acquisition of knowledge.
We endeavour to cultivate scholars who are not only academically accomplished, but also articulate, reflective, and principled in thought and action. Within our classrooms, learning is purposeful and engaging, guided by carefully structured pedagogy that encourages analytical thinking, intellectual independence, and a genuine appreciation for scholarship.
Central to our ethos is the belief that character and intellect must develop in harmony. We therefore place equal emphasis on conduct, responsibility, and respect—ensuring that our students carry themselves with confidence, integrity, and a strong sense of personal accountability.
Our faculty comprises dedicated professionals who bring both expertise and refinement to their practice. They serve as educators in the truest sense—mentors who inspire, challenge, and guide each learner towards the highest standards of achievement.
We recognise that excellence is sustained through consistency, clarity, and strong partnerships. Our collaboration with parents is therefore integral, enabling us to provide a cohesive and enriching educational experience for every child entrusted to our care.
At British Way International School Kandy, education is not treated as a routine, but as a disciplined and purposeful journey—one that prepares our students to excel within leading global academic frameworks and to contribute meaningfully to the world beyond.
