About These Guides
These official guides are produced by the National Institute of Education and distributed to schools across Sri Lanka. Each guide contains:

- Subject-specific objectives
- Term-wise unit breakdown with recommended periods
- Complete syllabus with detailed content
- Guidance on school policies and programs related to ICT education
