Gayani Surendra with Ramani Fernando

Medal for hairdressing

The International Medal of Excellence, City and Guidls was awarded to Gayani Surendra, a past pupil of Bishops' College, for her outstanding performance in the Diploma in Hairdressing.

She was a student of the Ramani Fernando Sunsilk Hair and Beauty Academy which has been recognised for its high standard of teaching and training.

The medal is awarded to the student who obtains the highest marks in the world for the International Vocational Qualification (Diploma in Hair Dressing).

This medal is open to all candidates around the world who have completed their international Vocational Qualification at a City and Guidls approved centre comprising both theory and practical assessment.

As for opting to study at the Academy, Gayani said it was an honour to be trained by the Guru who dressed her mother on her wedding day, 26 years ago. She said she was awestruck by Ramani and feels like she made the most out of the opportunity presented to her.
