BANGKOK, Sept 20 (TNA) – The Office of the Basic Education Commission (OBEC) plans to involve police forensic experts in investigating the case of a female teacher whose name disappeared from a top position in official recruitment results.
Tee Pawangkanan, Deputy Secretary-General of OBEC, announced the decision to postpone a scheduled press conference on the investigation’s findings. The delay aims to allow for a more thorough and transparent process.
OBEC has already completed our internal investigation within the seven-day deadline. However, to ensure transparency and fairness, it will invite the Police Forensic Science Office to participate in the examination.
The case involves a teacher who initially ranked first in a government employee recruitment exam at the Secondary Educational Service Area Office in Sa Kaeo but later found her name missing from the official announcement.
OBEC reveals preliminary exam results show her scores do not pass 60% threshold in both Part A and Part B, and not in top 10. Exam papers will be sent to the police for verification to ensure transparency.
The Ministry of Education will also establish a separate committee of credible individuals to conduct an additional review.
Once the external investigations are complete, OBEC plans to hold a comprehensive press conference. The event will include the affected teacher along with police forensic officials and other relevant parties.
This approach will not only provide clarity on this specific case but also set a standard for handling similar incidents in the future, he added. – 819 (TNA)
