Brightly College High School, led by celebrated educator Andrew Fowler-Watt, proudly announces the launch of its educational programmes in Sri Lanka. Located at the Colombo Innovation Tower on R.A. De Mel Mawatha, Colombo 4, this new educational institute is set to deliver future-forward learning for Sri Lankan students who aspire to be global citizens. Brightly believes in a new learning culture tailored for the future and is set to create outstanding young people who take on tomorrow’s challenges with intelligence, commitment and courage. Aiming to step in where the existing education system falls short, Brightly provides a learning experience specifically designed to create a steady foundation of future-forward skills and traits.
Ideal for both full and part-time A/Level students, Brightly College High School will provide a range of subjects and areas of interest for students to pursue. These include traditional subjects like science, mathematics, commerce, arts and psychology, along with other profoundly relevant subjects such as law, marine science, design and tourism, music technology and more. This globally applicable life-skills-centred curriculum is designed to inspire creativity, innovation, critical thinking, problem-solving and risk-taking.
Introducing Brightly College High School, Founder Principal, Andrew Fowler-Watt said, “The world first talked about STEM subjects—science, technology, engineering and mathematics. Then it was about STEAM subjects with the incorporation of ‘arts’, and now at Brightly College, we’re talking about STEAM+ where the subjects are directly relevant, both academically and vocationally, to the future of Sri Lanka and the world. Imagine a place where you can choose to study subjects like marine science, travel and tourism, digital media design, global perspectives, drama or textiles along with maths, economics, humanities and sciences for A/Ls. Imagine having that kind of access to subjects that are so directly relevant, that young people are genuinely passionate about, and that can help them take charge and build their own world. That’s what we offer at Brightly.”
Students can opt to study at Brightly College High School on a full-time or part-time basis. During the morning session, Brightly College will offer more traditional subjects, while focusing on the new curriculum in the afternoon. This provides students with the flexibility to either join Brightly College full-time or remain at their present school, while taking courses for an additional subject or two of their interest during the afternoon session. In addition to benefiting from a stimulating learning experience, students at Brightly College will also be guided in developing a truly effective command of both spoken and written English, along with their mother tongue. Brightly College High School is the ideal foundation-building platform for A/Level students who seek to pursue their higher education abroad or in Sri Lanka, through foreign educational programmes offered here.
Explaining further, Mr. Fowler-Watt added, “No country in the world has ever achieved ‘developed’ status without a fit-for-purpose, and up-to-date education system. Sri Lanka had a great and respected education system, but a lack of investment and resistance to change has diminished its ability to deliver results. However, I personally believe we can rediscover it because I have huge faith in Sri Lankans, the younger generation in particular. They just need to be allowed to think for themselves and develop as individuals, and this is exactly what Brightly is set up to offer.”
