According to government official Siripong Angkasakulkiat, the rules governing student hairstyles in public schools has been removed.
Each school perhaps then establish its own hairstyle guidelines as necessary.
According to Mr. Siripong, the withdrawal was made public last year in the Royal Gazette, and universities across the country have received written confirmation of the selection.
The letters put forth the need to get the opinions of others, including teachers, students, and parents, and to obtain authorization from the school board or college management committee before establishing clear hair guidelines.
He said,” The ministry reiterates that the ministry’s revocation of the 2020 student hairstyle regulation was formally carried out on January 16, last year.”
” So, ear-length wigs or three-sided shaved wigs will no longer be considered normal student hairstyles”.
There are no more any restrictions on how long or curly a student’s locks should be. According to him, school decisions should be made regarding haircuts and dress code.
According to Mr. Siripong, schools are urged to provide opportunities for students to discuss the best solutions in a productive manner.
He claimed that Permpoon Chidchob, the minister of education, is focusing on student rights and is offering assistance and advice on undergraduate happiness through the Semapithak Centre, where officials work to change student behavior through a variety of strategies.
He claimed that the center has no restrictions on their freedom, but that the policies are meant to encourage correct behavior, allowing students to be free within a framework that prevents harm to themselves or has a cultural impact.
The ministry thinks that all schools must follow guidelines to ensure peaceful coexistence.
Despite differing views, policies may provide students with opportunities, maintain value and lower bullying, Mr Siripong said.
” Discipline is important, but it must go hand in hand with human right”, he said.
