Bangkok Schools Show Significant Gains in 2025 PISA Results
Students in Bangkok schools have demonstrated marked improvements in the 2025 PISA assessments, particularly in science and mathematics.
According to a report from Matichon Online published on September 9, 2026, students within the Bangkok Metropolitan Administration (BMA) school system have achieved higher scores across all categories in the 2025 Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA). The data indicates a notable leap in performance specifically within the fields of science and mathematics.
Dr. Nattaporn Chan-chareon Seributr noted that these improvements are attributed to strategic adjustments in teaching methodologies and increased investment in teacher development programs. For residents and expatriates living in Thailand, this trend suggests a potential strengthening of the local public education system, which may influence long-term human capital development and the quality of the local workforce.
While these results highlight a positive trajectory for Bangkok’s educational standards, it remains to be confirmed how these improvements will be sustained over the long term or if similar gains are being mirrored in provincial school districts outside the capital. The report focuses specifically on the BMA-managed institutions, leaving the broader national performance context to be fully detailed in subsequent official government disclosures.
