dc.description.abstractThis paper focuses on the education system of Sri Lanka in the post-colonial and contemporary periods with a focus on English education. This review briefly explains how the changes were made by colonial rulers to introduce English education into the tiny island and how the local rulers attempted to diminish the importance of English education in the country in the post- colonial period. This review also assesses the reintroduction of English education and analyses different reasons for the changing roles of English education. Finally, this review explores the English Medium Instruction (EMI) at both secondary and tertiary levels and the underlying reasons for the success and failures of the EMI. Some brief suggestions are also made to overcome the present challenges in the system. Initially, this review commences with a brief description of the country and the education system. This is followed by the English medium instruction at schools and universities, the challenges and recommendations.en_US
