Dear Athula Wijewardena Sir;
Please put RC right. It was rotten to the core where RCU & SDS officials robbed millions as they wished. We have forced RCU to recover a few millions but there’s much more to recover. We are continuing our Battles before RTIC, HRC, CIABOC, Fraud Bureau and through Media. Like Winston Churchill once said “we shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills; we shall never surrender”.
But we can only do so much from outside and you can certainly finish what we started and walk away proudly as the Principal who came from rural South and the only one who had the backbone to cleanse Royal College of Terminal Corruption!
The Letter sent to Principal Thilk Watgthuhewa back in 2023
An Appeal to the Principal RC to Abolish Appointing Prefects at the Primary
Having observed the large scale corruption at the Primary for years where a few corrupt Teachers held Parents to ransom and having worked round the clock during the past few months to eradicate it using every avenue open to the Public, we have come to the realization that most of Corruption is centered around the Primary Prefectships. None in the Management has been able to explain to us, let alone convincing, what purpose they serve. On the contrary, we have come to realize that this recent tradition was introduced and carefully orchestrated by a few corrupt Teachers, with the tacit approval of your senior Management. The modus operandi is by identifying early of a set of wealthy (and immoral) parents, who by habit use bribery to get ahead in life and therefore have no hesitation in paying the Teachers even more than what is being asked for. The process starts early in Grades three and four where such Children are admitted to numerous Bands, Orchestras and Scouting where for everything from costumes to instruments, money is being charged.(Please check how many other schools are charging for uniforms and instruments and I’ll show you another corrupt school!). An independent study revealed that such collections in 2023 alone have easily exceeded Rs. 100 Million (currently being investigated by CIABOC – please see attached newspaper report and the complaint to CIABOC). The biggest damage is done to the students from economically challenged backgrounds because from early childhood they realize that important positions and recognizance is based on only one factor – Money. Bribery is a way of life and if your Parents are unable to pay the price, you will always remain unrecognized, irrespective of your talents. The resentments accrued over the years experiencing such unfair practices may later result in hatred and destruction or becoming even a worse Perpetrator. As a Principal who have recently taken over RC and with a reputation as someone who cannot be deceived or influenced by RCU & SDS, we would now like to pose following questions:
1. Does Royal Primary really need Prefects? Doesn’t the Middle and Senior Schools have enough Prefects to cover whatever the duties required?
2. What are the duties expected from a Primary Prefect?
3. If the Management feels it’s a must, how many are really required?
4. Should not they be selected on Merits, Achievements and Leadership abilities instead of financial strengths of Parents?
5. If it’s a must, shouldn’t the criteria published well in advance so that everyone could agree that the selection process is transparent and fair
Following are observations by a past Principal which provides a perfect stage to continue this dialogue:
