Welcome to Oxford Modern

Oxford Modern International School, situated at Kadugannawa, stands as one of the finest international educational institutions in the Central Province of Sri Lanka. Over the years, rapid development in every sphere of school activity has earned us a reputation as the most progressive and innovative school in the district of Kandy.

While the high standard we achieve in English is one of our main strengths, we believe in imbuing our students with the values of our most cherished cultures and traditions. Our children live in a diverse community — multicultural, multinational and multilingual — where great emphasis is laid on mutual respect and tolerance. Our aim is to promote unity in diversity through harmonious co-existence.
