According to government official Siripong Angkasakulkiat, the Thailand’s Ministry of Education has withdrawn the rule governing student wigs in public schools.
Each college perhaps then establish its own hairstyle guidelines as necessary.
According to Mr. Siripong, the judgement was disclosed in the Royal Gazette last year, and colleges across the country received written confirmation of it on Saturday.
Before setting clear hair instructions, the letters stressed the importance of gathering input from all parties, including professors, students, and parents, as well as obtaining authorization from the school board or college management committee.
He stated that the ministry’s decision to revoke the 2020 pupil hairstyle regulations was made on January 16, 2013.
” So, ear-length wigs or three-sided shaved wigs will no longer be considered normal student hairstyles”.
There are no more any restrictions on the size or hairstyle of individuals. According to him, school decisions should be made regarding wigs and dress codes.
According to Mr. Siripong, schools are urged to give opportunities for students to discuss the best solutions in a productive way.
He claimed that Permpoon Chidchob, the minister of education, is focusing on student rights and is offering assistance and advice on undergraduate security 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 government thinks that all schools have rules that foster peaceful coexistence.
Despite differing views, policies may provide students with opportunities, maintain value and minimize bullying, Mr Siripong said.
” Discipline is important, but it must go hand in hand with mortal right”, he said.
