Thailand teachers short of skills
In a move to develop it's teachers' skills, the Thailand Ministry of Education had the idea to have teachers in secondary school take the same test they are supposed to prepare their students to. The results are catastrophic: up to 88% of teachers specialized in computer science failed the test, 86% in Biology, 84% in Mathematics, 71% in Physics, 64% in Chemistry and 63% in Astronomy and Earth sciences.
At junior high level, the results are, fortunately, significatively better, with 58% of teachers in mathematics getting marks of more than 80%.
The situation shows how badly thailand needs to enhance the level of it's educators. The Government has set a budget of 1.4 billion Baht for that purpose. But that budget might well be insufficient to meet the challenge.
