A commission may be established by the Ministry of Education to direct efforts to reduce high school dropout rates.
The government was spurred into motion by a new study, which found that 394, 039 kids aged six to 18 are missing from the country’s required education program.
Education Minister Permpoon Chidchob announced on Wednesday that the Office of the Education Council ( OEC ) has been given the task of creating a strategic plan to address the issue of school dropouts.
After resuming the campaign meeting to discuss Thailand Zero Dropout, Pol Gen Permpoon stated that the plan will include ideas from various groups.
The government approved the project on May 28 during the Srettha Thavisin leadership. The former top ordered the government to launch its campaign in July to reach out to kids who had been omitted or left the educational system.
The initiative led to the latest review.
The Office of the Basic Education Commission ( Obec), according to Pol Gen Permpoon, is in charge of carrying out a related project that will return students from Prathom 1 ( grade 1 ) to Mathayom 3 ( grade 7 ) in order to reinstate them in the mandatory educational system.
He added that the OEC should also make compulsory schooling available for children in juvenile detention facilities, such as those who are not able to attend school.
He suggested that the OEC might create a long-distance training program exclusively for Thai youngsters who currently reside abroad.
A shared collection technique, he said, will also be developed so agencies under the government, whose job is to correct the college dropout problem, you continue updating their data.
The Thailand Zero Dropout strategy has four fundamental steps that must be taken in order to eradicate college students.
The second involves federal agencies looking for children who are not enrolled in the required education program.
Next, innovative measures are being developed to track out-of-school students and direct them to various organizations to get them the appropriate education.
Third, a pliable, standard-quality education program is tailored to suit various groups of children with various educational needs.
Finally, business owners are being urged to work with the government to arrange required learning for boys who need to operate while studying.
