The current dress code for school teachers will not be changed under any circumstances, Minister of Education Susil Premajayantha has said.
Earlier, Ceylon Teachers’ Union had requested the Education Secretary to allow female teachers the opportunity to follow a more lenient dress code to attend schools as government officials have been given the opportunity to wear appropriate clothing to work while maintaining the dignity of the public service as well.
However, the request was severely criticized by the Maha Sangha.
