Thailand’s Education Ministry aims to get as many dropouts as possible back to school in 2025 under the government’s Thailand Zero Dropout policy.
According to the ministry, over one million children aged 3-18 dropped out in 2024. Of them, 767,304 were Thais.
Of the Thai children, 47.6% were brought back to school. For foreign children, 12.32% returned to school.
