The Ministry of Education is considering taking legal action against the Bad Student website and its administrator for identifying teachers and schools which prohibited students in casual clothing from attending classes on the first day of the second semester on Tuesday. 

 

In an interview with the Inside Thailand TV programme this morning (Wednesday), Education Minister Nataphol Teepsuwan said that such disclosures may violate the right for privacy of the teaching staff and their schools.

 

On its website, the Bad Student group is encouraging students, who were denied entry to their schools or whose parents were summoned to meet with school administrators for their child’s defiance of the dress code, to report the names of the schools and teachers involved. The Bad Student group has threatened to expose them on their webpage to denounce or shame them.

May be some teachers violate the rights of children, as well.

They insist on keeping the population firmly entrenched in the third world while they ceaselessly pilfer the national coffers! Where will it ever end?

With a late night dash for the airport...

You wouldn't want to get left behind, not with all those fancy lampposts along that route!

It appears that, thankfully, the government is finally failing in its mission. Which has been to keep the kids too dumbed down to think for themselves.

 

wearing Nike sneakers and designer jeans is a sign that "kids are thinking for themselves? Since when are schools fashion shows? 

one of the origins and reasons of school uniforms in Thailand is that children from poor families are not send to school by their parents in old ragged down clothes, but properly dressed, and no distinction between poor children and regular children.

 

Tossing away the dress code wont make kids "smarter", thats just dumb and anti Thai sentiment. Also, most Thai kids dont mind and even like to wear their school clothes. It never was and never is a real problem.

 

Wearing sneakers and fancy clothes in the usa  doesnt prevent illiteracy amongst students, doesnt prevent school bullying, doesnt prevent school shootings. 

 

Another finge group trying to get its 5 minutes of fame. Just uphold tge rules; no school clothes no entry.

Think I can safely predict that the next action the clowns will announce is that all students not complying will soon start to have their grades downgraded

 

I didn't think that teacher's were allowed to downgrade results, straight A's all the way no matter what ???????????????? ????
