Victoria Central Graduate School officially launches in Sri Lanka

The launch event was held at the Cinnamon Grand Hotel in Colombo, in collaboration with key partners NCC Education UK, Nottingham Trent University (NTU UK), the British Council, and Asia Pacific University of Technology & Innovation (APU Malaysia).

Victoria Central Graduate School is introduced with a mission to deliver high-quality foundation and diploma programs that are accepted by universities worldwide. It aims to offer accessible alternatives to the G.C.E. Advanced Level examination (G.C.E. A/L) for students seeking a direct route to higher education and to support every student with dedicated university placement services.

Victoria Central Graduate School is set to provide Sri Lankan students with globally recognised higher education opportunities, offering flexible, affordable, and comprehensive pathways to international degrees.

With over 10 years of experience in the education sector, Jade Education Group adds Victoria Central Graduate School as a significant milestone to its successful ventures, which include Jade International School, Jade Preschool and Daycare, and Upskill English School.

Victoria Central Graduate School Managing Director Siraj Hanes explained how he consistently supported innovative learning pathways that bridge local aspirations with global opportunities, a vision that led him to introduce this campus.

The programs are structured into three levels. Level 3 serves as an entry point for the international foundation program. The Level 4 Diploma is equivalent to the first year of a UK Bachelor’s degree, while the Level 5 Diploma is equivalent to the second year of a UK degree.

“Students undertaking these programs will benefit from direct entry into our partnered universities while gaining globally recognised qualifications,” Hanes stated.
