Abstract

This paper intends to explore the need and importance of women education, trends, prospects and challenges in Sri Lanka after Independence. The education of women is very essential for happy and healthy life at homes, the improvement of society, economic prosperity, and for national solidarity. There are enough constitution provisions in Sri Lanka which guarantee fundamental rights to women more equal to men. However, women are subjected to various issues and challenges. They face discrimination based on gender, harassment in schools, lack of separate transport facility, lack of toilet facilities, child marriages, etc. in the course of their life. In the recent development approaches carried out in Sri Lanka have brought a lot of opportunities for the women and not the trend of women education changed a lot. Most of the educational institutions are occupied with girls than boys. Most of the teachers are women. However, the issues related women still need appropriate attention.
