Grade 2 education in Sri Lanka builds upon the foundational skills acquired in Grade 1, further enhancing students’ literacy, numeracy, and critical thinking abilities. Typically for children aged 7 to 8, this year focuses on deeper engagement with subjects such as Sinhala or Tamil, English, mathematics, and environmental studies, encouraging students to explore concepts more independently.

The curriculum includes interactive activities that promote collaboration and creativity, such as group projects, storytelling, and hands-on experiments. Students also continue to develop their artistic skills through arts and crafts, while physical education fosters teamwork and physical fitness. Moral education remains a key component, helping students cultivate values and a sense of community.

Grade 2 emphasizes not only academic growth but also social and emotional development, preparing students for the challenges of higher grades and fostering a lifelong love for learning.
