The Partnership School Project, under the Faculty of Learning Sciences and Education, Thammasat University, and Bangkok Bank Public Company Limited, is an educational development initiative implemented in collaboration with partners in education and development. The project aims to drive educational development in schools based on the belief that everyone can contribute to the development of education within their school.
The project includes Wat Niwetwutharam School in Nakhon Sawan Province and Ban Bang Mak School in Trang Province. These schools serve as pilot sites for research and knowledge development through an empowerment process, capacity development for those involved in learning management, and the integration of diverse elements into learning processes for students through four strategies:
Strategy 1: Knowledge and Curriculum Development
Strategy 2: Capacity Development for Personnel, Parents, and Communities
Strategy 3: Teaching Materials and Learning Resources Development
Strategy 4: Social Communication
Project Goals
- To develop teachers and educational personnel in terms of competencies, knowledge, and abilities to design learning processes, enabling them to adapt teaching, learning, and assessment practices at the school level while taking into account the diversity of learners and their surrounding contexts.
- To develop learning management that takes the learning ecosystem into consideration, strengthen collaboration among various sectors, and develop the school’s learning ecosystem within the context of its community.
Project Objectives
- To study effective approaches for developing the capacities of teachers and school administrators to drive and create change within educational institutions.
- To study effective processes for developing educational management and learning ecosystems within schools with diverse contexts.
Based on the implementation of the project to date, the project team has found that the next step in educational development, amid the different conditions, challenges, and surrounding factors of each school, is to develop a “learning ecosystem” that takes into account local contexts and the relationships among teachers, students, schools, and communities. This will be a key factor in creating learning processes that are meaningful to learners.
