Abstract

This research aims to study and support the implementation of Educational Sandbox Areas in eight provinces, comprising four existing provinces (Chiang Mai, Rayong, Satun, and Si Sa Ket) and four new provinces (Bangkok, Chanthaburi, Songkhla, and Ubon Ratchathani). The study employs action research methodology to support the development of educational ecosystems in accordance with the Educational Sandbox Area Act B.E. 2562 (2019). The findings reveal significant progress across multiple dimensions, particularly in curriculum development where Ubon Ratchathani and Bangkok successfully modified the core curriculum to increase flexibility. In student assessment, Rayong developed comprehensive competency evaluation tools, while in personnel management, Chanthaburi and Satun initiated a new approach to school director transfers through mutual agreement. The research identifies two main success factors: the capacity of local driving mechanisms and the complexity level of educational ecosystem development. The capacity of driving mechanisms encompasses local institutional capacity, central support, and social partner engagement. Policy recommendations focus on developing three key mechanisms. Local institutional mechanisms should align implementation plans with available resources and capabilities. Central mechanisms should facilitate best practice sharing and develop operational manuals for locals. Social partners should engage through resource management and raise local awareness. Furthermore, the study proposes three future research directions: developing achievement assessment tools, evaluating the effectiveness of Educational Sandbox Areas, and researching the development of Generative AI as an innovative educational management support tool.
