Triam Udom Suksa students heed activists' call to shun uniform

By THE NATION

 

 

Some students of Triam Udom Suksa School in Bangkok arrived at their school on Tuesday morning in casual outfits, in line with the KKC Pakee Students group’s demand.

 

 

KKC issued a clarion call last Thursday asking students across the country to not be afraid of questioning the need to wear school uniforms and dress casually on Tuesday to show their stance.

 

 

According to the pro-democracy group “Bad Student”, Triam Udom Suksa was among 23 schools nationwide where students would act in line with the KKC campaigns. However, the situation at other schools has not been reported on Tuesday morning.

 

 

The Bad Student has also set a online website for report about negative response of schools nationwide toward students in informal outfits.

 

 

Minister of Education Nataphol Teepsuwan told the press at Government House that to wear casual clothes to school is a violation of his ministry’s rule. However, a punishment in this case will not result in expulsion, he added.

 

 

The minister mentioned that his organisation was considering allowing students to wear informal outfits once a month.

Well done to the students, very strange how all of a sudden the department/ministry change their tune and surprise surprise are considering letting students wear mufti once a month.............

Bad movement ! Students should learn to obey some basic school rules.

 

What if there is someone asking the police or the Army not to observe the regulations of uniforms?

Wonderful to see. Even some humour with Hogwarts uniforms. Well done students.

Mandatory haircuts and mandatory uniforms ect ? I assume these people setting these old fashioned rules up on others are enrolling  their own kids in international schools..

Work-out a compromise, school uniforms 3 days a week, mufti day Monday & Fridays.

A lot of people are employed in garment factories producing school uniforms...
