Govt launches ’20-year strategic education plan’
The Education Ministry is launching the “20-year Strategic Education Plan” as it works towards its vision to revamp the education system and bring educational standards on a par with those of developed countries. The plan will be in line with the government’s 20-year national strategy, which consists of six areas — security, competitive enhancements, human resource development, social equality, green growth, and rebalancing public sector development, according to permanent secretary for education Chaipreuk Sereerak. Each education policy is being geared towards the goals of investing in human capital; ensuring justice and reducing social disparities; strengthening the economy and enhancing competitiveness on a sustainable development. The policies must also address stability for the country’s development toward prosperity and sustainability, enhance the efficiency of management in the public sector and promote good governance.
