Teacher Performance Appraisal: Education Ministry Issues Special Instructions for Salary Increments

Education Ministry letter on performance appraisal and salary increment of Sri Lanka Teacher Service officers


-niru-

MINISTRY OF EDUCATION – SRI LANKA

Performance Appraisal of Teacher Service Officers

Special instructions have been issued regarding the documents and forms required when processing salary increments for teachers.

Reference: ED/02/29/02/02/47
Date: 04 July 2026
The Ministry of Education, Higher Education and Vocational Education has issued a special letter concerning the performance appraisal of officers belonging to the Sri Lanka Teacher Service. The instructions are intended to simplify the procedure followed when granting teachers’ salary increments and to prevent unnecessary administrative burdens.

📨 Letter Addressed To

All Provincial Chief Secretaries
All Provincial Education Secretaries
All Provincial Public Service Commission Secretaries
All Provincial Ministry of Education Secretaries
All Provincial Directors of Education

📌 Main Instruction

For future salary increment payments, only the following nationally approved documents should be used:

01. Salary Increment Form
02. Teacher Performance Appraisal Form
ENGLISH

Performance Appraisal of Teacher Service Officers

Teacher unions have brought to the Ministry’s attention that the current procedure followed for the performance appraisal of Sri Lanka Teacher Service officers is creating an unnecessary burden on teachers’ academic duties.

In addition to the prescribed performance appraisal form used by zonal offices when granting salary increments to national school teachers, teachers have reportedly been required to submit various other documents, forms and detailed information.

Therefore, the relevant authorities have been requested to ensure that only the nationally approved Salary Increment Payment Certificate and Teacher Performance Appraisal Form are used when processing future salary increments.

The use of additional forms introduced at provincial and zonal levels should be discontinued.

National Education Management Information System (NEMIS) First Phase Launched in Sri Lanka

Image Alt: National Education Management Information System (NEMIS) First Phase Launch Ceremony Sri Lanka 2026


The Government of Sri Lanka has officially launched the first phase of the National Education Management Information System (NEMIS) together with the pilot project of the e-Thaksalawa Learning Management System (LMS). The official launch ceremony was held on 06 June 2026 at Temple Trees under the patronage of the Prime Minister and Minister of Education, Higher Education and Vocational Education, Dr. Harini Amarasuriya.

📢 Prime Minister's Message

"To create an education system with equal privileges in the country, decisions must be made based on correct data management."

Prime Minister Dr. Harini Amarasuriya stated that every child in Sri Lanka should have an equal opportunity to experience quality education. She emphasized that educational reforms must be guided by accurate data, proper policies, and technological advancement.

💻 National Education Management Information System (NEMIS)

The National Education Management Information System has been developed to modernize the fields of human resource management and educational administration, which are among the key pillars of Sri Lanka's education reforms.

Previously, different provinces operated separate information systems independently. Through NEMIS, information relating to both National and Provincial schools will now be maintained under one centralized digital platform, improving efficiency, transparency, and accuracy.

🚀 First Phase Implementation

  • Launch of the Human Resources Module.
  • Teacher transfer activities will initially be managed through the system.
  • First implemented in:
    • Western Province
    • Southern Province
    • Sabaragamuwa Province
    • North Western Province
  • The system will gradually be expanded to all provinces across Sri Lanka.
  • Future modules will manage the human resources of all academic staff working in schools.

📚 e-Thaksalawa Learning Management System (LMS)

Alongside NEMIS, the pilot project of the e-Thaksalawa Learning Management System (LMS) was also launched.

The LMS aims to:

  • Expand digital learning opportunities.
  • Strengthen teaching and learning activities.
  • Improve student evaluation processes.
  • Develop future-ready digital citizens.

👩‍🏫 Digitalization Will Not Replace Teachers

Addressing the gathering, Prime Minister Dr. Harini Amarasuriya emphasized that digitalization is not intended to replace teachers.

She stated that education depends on human relationships and interaction. Technology should be used as a supporting tool to improve teaching and learning, while teachers remain the most important part of the educational process.

Through digitalization, the Government expects to:

  • Provide quality education to schools with fewer facilities.
  • Extend the influence of highly skilled teachers to every school.
  • Create better learning opportunities for children with special needs.
  • Build humane and future-oriented citizens.

🤝 Collaborative National Initiative

The project was successfully implemented with the support and cooperation of multiple government institutions and stakeholders.

  • Prime Minister's Office
  • Ministry of Education, Higher Education and Vocational Education
  • Ministry of Digital Economy
  • Task Force for the Digital Transformation of Education
  • Provincial and Zonal Education Authorities
