Most innovative school in the world:

Another feather in Royal's cap

Sri Lanka's premier public school Royal College, Colombo was yesterday selected as one of the best innovative schools in the world by Microsoft.

This has been described as not only an achievement for Royal College but also for the entire country especially as this has happened within 2009, the year of ICT and English as declared by the Government. In May 2009, a local competition was organized by Microsoft Sri Lanka in co-ordination with the Education Ministry to select five most innovative schools in the country. Royal College took part in this competition and was selected together with another four schools to represent Sri Lanka in the global competition.
