BANGKOK (NNT) - The Office of the Basic Education Commission (OBEC) will allow schools to decide how to provide lessons to students, when the new semester opens on 1 June.

 

OBEC secretary-general Amporn Pinasa said OBEC and the Centre for COVID-19 Situation Administration (CCSA) have been assessing control zones for schools and considering their readiness for the school term.

 

He said, as some schools cannot return to normal teaching during the COVID-19 pandemic, OBEC has decided to offer five learning and teaching options, namely on site, on air, online, on demand and on hand, depending on the specific situation of each school.

 

Mr Amporn said this approach will allow students to choose the learning options which suit their circumstances, without creating a burden for their parents, adding that OBEC will find a way to arrange efficient courses, and will also offer alternative learning, such as work skills, while waiting for the new term.

Probably get in some ways  a better education without  all the marching up and down and dressing up as  soldiers, saluting the flag daily  nonsense.

Still 3 weeks to go.. I think the schools won't open the 1st of June due more Covid cases, and slow vaccinations

I said in another post that lack of school attendance will have a positive impact as it will result in lack of brainwashing.  There could be a whole generation of kids able to think for themselves if it lasted long enough. And all that nationalistic and feudal sh$$e you mentioned would be discarded to the bin where it belongs.

But how will these kids learn to kowtow correctly.

They won't that is the advantage. Nor will they soil their clothes unneccesarily because crawling on the ground will also be shook off as archaic nonsense

I fear you may be right.  Education doesn't seem important to the powers that be!

Always a silver lining... if ever a pandemic had a benefit it would be a generation of kids cut-loose from indoctrination.

Don't worry, it will only take a week or two to get back on track.
