(Bangkok Post file photo)As debates rage on about how to move national education reform forwards, globalisation has been transforming Thailand's learning landscape without the experts and administrators in charge noticing much. According to the Office of the Private Education Commission (Opec), as of June 2016 there are 166 international schools in Thailand. There is an obvious need for a platform of exchange and mentoring among our secondary education. The global trend indicates that more international schools with English as the language of instruction are being established in most countries. What opportunity is available for collaboration and exchange between the "inquiry-based approach" being pursued as the global trend and the "more didactic style" of our national education?
