A child\u2019s journey toward greater opportunities can begin with something simple: exploring answers beyond textbooks, writing their first lines of code, or learning from a teacher who opens their eyes to new possibilities. These are the kinds of opportunities being created at Ban Khao Klom Community School in Krabi, one of the schools supported by True Corporation under the CONNEXT ED initiative for a decade, since 2016. As part of the \u201cTrue on the Move \u2013 SEA YOU THERE\u201d trip, Sigve Brekke, Group Chief Executive Officer of True Corporation Plc.<\/strong>, together with Dr. Naetchanok Wipatasinlapin, Chief Sustainability Officer of True Corporation Plc. \/ Director and Secretary of CONNEXT ED Foundation<\/strong>, visited the school to engage with educators, exchange perspectives on educational development, and hand over ready-to-use laptops and sports equipment to expand learning opportunities for students. The delegation was welcomed by Ms. Methapiya Rakthong<\/strong>, the school\u2019s current principal, and Mr. Theerapol Boonsuk<\/strong>, former principal, alongside representatives from the Krabi Primary Educational Service Area Office, education committee members, and parents at Ban Khao Klom Community School in Krabi.<\/p>\n

Empowering Classrooms Through Digital Technology<\/strong><\/p>\n

As one of the founding organizations of the CONNEXT ED Foundation, True Corporation has continuously supported Ban Khao Klom Community School in Krabi through initiatives aligned with the Foundation\u2019s five core strategies. These efforts began with strengthening the school\u2019s digital infrastructure by providing ICT equipment for classrooms and ready-to-use laptops equipped with essential software and website-filtering systems to ensure safe access to digital resources. Building on the school\u2019s 2019 development plan, True also introduced computational science learning materials and micro programming kits, complemented by hands-on training. These resources enable teachers and students to explore coding, develop systematic thinking skills, and turn their ideas into practical creations.The school has continued to integrate these resources into everyday teaching and learning, supported by educational content from True Plookpanya and World Library, which broaden students\u2019 access to knowledge and new learning experiences. True has also provided sports equipment to encourage students\u2019 physical and emotional development, supporting a more holistic approach to education.<\/p>\n

Empowering Teachers, Unlocking Every Child\u2019s Potential<\/strong><\/p>\n

Technology delivers its greatest impact when people have the knowledge and confidence to use it effectively. Recognizing this, True places equal importance on developing educators and strengthening the capabilities of school personnel.<\/p>\n

Through the School Partner initiative, young leaders work closely with school principals and teachers to develop strategic plans and drive tangible improvements in school development. Meanwhile, ICT Talent, a program supporting educational technology leaders, helps teachers and students maximize the benefits of ICT equipment and digital learning platforms. True also supports cybersecurity training delivered by School Partners, alongside computational science courses from True Click Life, equipping educators with digital skills and practical knowledge to incorporate new technologies and teaching approaches into their classrooms. These initiatives encourage teachers to become facilitators of learning, creating environments where students are empowered to think independently, ask questions, experiment, and explore their own interests. By moving beyond traditional instruction, teachers can help each child discover and develop their unique potential.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Turning Classroom Learning into Measurable Outcomes<\/strong><\/p>\n

To ensure that student learning and school development progress hand in hand, the CONNEXT ED Foundation and True Corporation also support the implementation of a School Management System. The system enables schools to consolidate information, improve administration, and monitor performance across key areas, providing a structured, data-driven foundation for continuous development. In the 2025 academic year, Ban Khao Klom Community School achieved a School Grading assessment of \u201cGood\u201d, with a score of 3.16. This reflects the school\u2019s progress in strengthening its overall readiness through improvements in technology, teaching capabilities, curriculum, and school management. These efforts help establish a sustainable foundation for the school to continue delivering meaningful educational opportunities to future generations of students.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Dr. Naetchanok Wipatasinlapin, Chief Sustainability Officer of True Corporation Plc. \/ Director and Secretary of CONNEXT ED Foundation<\/strong>, said \u201cTrue Corporation is deeply committed to supporting education because we believe young people are the driving force behind Thailand\u2019s future. By leveraging our digital technologies, expertise, and collaboration across sectors, we aim to continuously enhance learning opportunities for Thai children. Ban Khao Klom Community School in Krabi is a strong example of the collaboration between the CONNEXT ED Foundation and True Corporation, bringing the Foundation\u2019s five core strategies into practice: 1.
