வரலாறு

Baduriya Central College, Mawanella was started over six decades ago as the results of the dedication, sacrifice, and hard work of few elders and philanthropist of the past decades. presently it is one of the most popular Tamil medium schools in the Sabaragamuwa Province. This school is provided with facilities for higher education in science, commerce and art streams. This school was started as the junior school where boys and girls received their education together. Even at it inception the parents felt the necessity for the separate schools for boys and girls. In 1971 the girls and the boys were separated. The girls school started to function in the existing buildings while the boys were shifted to the building used as the Quaranic Madasa, the property of the Masjidhun Noor Jumma Mosque of Kiringadeniya. Mawanella. In this Madrasa building the school sessions were conducted in the mornings and the quaranic madrasa was conducted in the evenings. As one would understand the basic facilities and the environment for education and the resources available were hardly adequate for an educational institution. As the years passed, the girls school developed, where as the Boys school deteriorated. The vital resources for proper education for boys were lacking. Even the government was helpless as its policy, it could not maintain two separate schools in the same village. Eventually the boys began to drop out of the school as they had no scope for higher education. This created a serious situation where the leaders, the parents and the community at large had to decide on a course of action to afford the boys a chance of securing higher education as early as possible. In 1989, after much deliberation the leaders, elders, and the parents decided to amalgamate the two schools immediately and launch on a project to establish a separate boys’ school as early as possible. Today Baduriya Central College is one of the leading Tamil Medium Schools in Sri Lanka.
