📋 Selection Criteria
  • Completion of at least 3 years of service in the Sri Lanka Principals Service within the currently serving province.
  • Seniority priority applied when multiple applicants contested a single vacancy.
  • For officers appointed simultaneously via the same competitive examination, seniority was determined by the merit order of the examination (subsequent service confirmations or grade promotions were not considered).
  • Allocations strictly prioritized first preferences (Preference 1), followed by second and third preferences based on seniority where vacancies remained.
⚠️ Reasons for Application Rejection
  • Submission of false or inaccurate appointment dates (specifically those appointed on 2023-11-16 who misstated appointment details).
  • Failure to complete the mandatory 3-year provincial service requirement by 2026-06-30 due to non-assumption of duties in scheduled posts.
  • Language medium mismatches (Tamil-medium officers applying for Sinhala-medium posts or vice versa).
  • Grade disparities (Grade II/III officers applying for Grade I vacancies, or Grade I officers applying for Grade II/III vacancies).
  • Officers who have already submitted applications to the Ministry seeking promotion to Grade I of the Principals Service.
📬 Inquiries & Objections Procedure

Officers wishing to submit inquiries or objections must adhere to the following Ministry guidelines:

Submission Window September 14, 2026 – September 18, 2026 (Between 8:30 AM and 4:00 PM)
Submission Venue Principals Branch, Ministry of Education, Isurupaya, Battaramulla

Grounds for Inquiries: Officers may present written evidence if an applicant with lower seniority or lower merit rank has been selected for a school they applied for.
