History
Nakano College, a Japanese-founded institution, traces its origins back to its inception by High Priest Ven. Shushyo Koyso Thera and Ven. Anuradha Nakano Theri. Under the directorship of Ven. kumburugamuwe Soratha Thero, the college began its journey as an English medium, co-educational institute.
The establishment of Nakano Pre-school on September 6, 2005, marked the initial step in providing education to the community. Subsequently, on September 6, 2009, Nakano College was officially founded in Alubomulla with a modest number of students and two dedicated teachers.
Over the years, Nakano College has evolved, becoming a registered Cambridge school and distinguished as the sole educational institution offering Cambridge primary qualifications. This unique offering reflects the college's commitment to providing a comprehensive education that encompasses both national and international standards.
Today, Nakano College continues to thrive, serving as a beacon of learning and excellence in education, with a curriculum that integrates both National and Cambridge qualifications, ensuring students receive a well-rounded education that prepares them for success in the global arena.
Nakano College was the first international school to open in Bandaragama, in the year 2009. Since then, the school has grown in leaps and bounds. Now, with two branches located in Alubomulla and Bandaragama, and with over 1200 students and 120 qualified teachers, the schools cater to the English medium in both the Cambridge and National Curriculums.
Students are educated in the Cambridge and National syllabi with a focus on Mathematics, English Language, Science, Commerce, and Aesthetics, proudly producing world-class citizens. The students grow in stature and wisdom through years of grooming in the fields of education, sports, and extracurricular activities. They are offered a choice of clubs and associations, including chess clubs, debate clubs, media clubs, and many more.
