This year the Kamphaengphet Municipality announces education policy to establish new vocational school for local students to learn somethings which are more than academic subjects.
It's the fact that, less students attend vocational school eventhough the government policy encourage the Thai students to go to vocational schools rather than high schools. Also, there are only one vocational school in the city which there normally few seats for students who want to learn a kind of professional subjects such as engine, electricity, computer etc. Regard to this, the KPP municipality aims to provide the alternative choice for those who has no seat in school. On top of this the City Mayor want to increase number of workforce who graduated in professional fields which can help the growing of local labour market. " We should have more students who have professional knowledge from our vocational school, so they can bring their professional knowledge to start up their business which will increase local economic growth. Of course, It's can help students to get job and be employed.", Mayor Chaiwat said.
To achive this goal, I follow up the policy by transfering that policy to all involved persons, such as, school directors, teachers, local leaders, executive officials, and people with bureaucratic mechanism. Also, the necessary budget invested on infrastructure and managerial materials. This afternoon, I took a visit to the vocational school to give some advices and to sheer up every teachers who must work hard before the incoming semester.
