However, I did not quite have the principles or <\/span>methods. So I put it to trial at a Border Patrol Police School, which was <\/span>quite remote and under harsh conditions. In the beginning, I focused <\/span>on how those young ones of school age could become healthy and ready <\/span>for classes, so that they could learn and develop as responsible and <\/span>productive members of their communities\u2026<\/span><\/p>\n [\/vc_column_text][vc_separator color=”white”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n Seminar for Border Patrol Police Principals [\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/12″][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row_content_no_spaces” gap=”25″ css=”.vc_custom_1678767418759{background-color: rgba(241,242,227,0.74) !important;*background-color: rgb(241,242,227) !important;}” el_id=”Background”][vc_column][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n [\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner content_placement=”top” gap=”35″][vc_column_inner width=”1\/12″][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/4″][vc_column_text]Border Patrol Police Schools (or BPP Schools) are schools that provide basic education to children and youth in rural areas, far away from telecommunication systems. The schools are under the supervision of the Royal Thai Police. The first Border Patrol Police School was established in 1956 at Ban Don Mahawan, Chiang Khong District, Chiang Rai Province. At the time, the area was remote. Most people living in the area were hill tribe people who only spoke their native language and could not speak Thai. The Ministry of Education was not able to provide formal education in that area due to the limitation of the staff and budget and the fact the area was very remote. Therefore, the border patrol police started to teach Thai language and Mathematics to the children. The students could then speak, read, and write in Thai. These skills allowed the children to communicate and trade with the people outside their community.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Initially, there were no buildings. So the classes were taught under the trees, under the leaders\u2019 houses, or inside temples. Later, people had donated land and necessary tools to build school buildings. In addition, people donated books and teaching materials for class use. The border patrol police formally placed teachers at the schools.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/4″][vc_column_text]Eventually, the government realized that the setting up of the Border Patrol Police Schools is beneficial. Therefore, the government has expanded the program to other similar areas. As of now, there are 222 Border Patrol Police Schools, located in 40 provinces, which are under the supervision of Superintendent Border Patrol Police Area and Border Patrol Police Bureau. Each Border Patrol Police School has its own educational committee, which consists of a principal and representatives from the villages. The committee will support the school in terms of basic education and other school development activities. [\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]Thailand has 4,863-km borders with neighboring countries. Of these, 1,754 km is a border with Laos, 803 km is a border with Malaysia, and 1,800 km is a border with Myanmar. The areas near the borders are mountains and woods that are far from transportation. The people living in the areas are of various (more than ten) ethnic groups such as Thai, Karen, Hmong, Yao, Muser, Mon, etc. Most people are poor. They work as farmers or work for hire. Unlike people from other parts of the country, they lack opportunity to receive basic services from the government such as education and public health systems.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″ el_id=”School\u2019s Philosophy and Missions”][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n [\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]The core philosophy of Border Patrol Police Schools is \u2018Creating Wisdom, Developing Quality of Life, Establishing Stability\u2019.
