Thai Government Abandons ‘White School’ Initiative Aimed at Cutting Teacher Paperwork

Thailand's education ministry announced the termination of the White School project. The program was introduced to streamline administrative tasks for teachers. Officials say the initiative added little value and increased paperwork. The decision follows criticism from educators and unions. The ministry will focus on alternative methods to reduce clerical load. Schools are instructed to revert to existing reporting procedures. The move is expected to improve teacher morale and classroom time. Authorities will monitor the impact and consider further reforms.
