MESSAGE FROM HEAD OF SCHOOL

It is my great pleasure to welcome you to the Overseas School of Colombo, Sri Lanka’s first and oldest international school, and a community I was delighted to join as Head of School in July 2025. With more than 25 years of experience leading schools around the world, I have found few communities as warm, dynamic, and committed to excellence as OSC.
As a fully accredited IB World School, OSC nurtures students from early childhood through the IB Primary Years, Middle Years, and Diploma Programmes. Here, students are empowered to take ownership of their learning while developing a deep sense of global responsibility. We are proud of our mission to guide students toward international mindedness, intercultural understanding, and personal excellence, values that are at the heart of everything we do.

Our students are curious, compassionate, and courageous thinkers who pursue their passions, celebrate diversity, and contribute meaningfully to the world around them. They thrive in a personalized and inclusive learning environment and go on to attend leading universities around the globe. The IB Diploma continues to be recognized worldwide as one of the most rigorous and respected qualifications for university success, and our students rise to that challenge with enthusiasm and resilience.
