Welcome to Harrow International College

A Legacy of Educational Excellence, since 1992.

Founded in 1992 by Mr. A.M. Sameem and Mrs. Sithy Fathima Sameem, Harrow International College was born out of a vision to provide quality, values-based education to the youth of Sri Lanka.

“At Harrow, we believe education should do more than inform — it should transform. Our mission is to equip students with the knowledge, values, and global perspectives needed to thrive in the 21st century. In an ever-changing world, we believe education must evolve. At Harrow International College, we combine tradition with modern learning methods to ensure our students are globally competent and emotionally resilient.”
