    Sri Lanka has a long history of providing universal free education from primary to tertiary levels. The current education system was established in 1945 and mandates 9 years of compulsory schooling for all children. It also introduced many rural schools starting in the 1940s to improve access to education across the country. While literacy and enrollment rates are high, the education system faces challenges in ensuring graduates have skills aligned with the labor market.
