No Mathayom 6 classes this week as students prep for college entrance exams

The TGAT-TPAT exams are required for students who want to apply to universities in Thailand. The TGAT exam measures general academic aptitude, while the TPAT exam measures subject-specific knowledge.

The OBEC said that the decision to close schools was made in response to concerns that students would not have enough time to prepare for college entrance exams if they had to attend classes as usual. The exams will be held on December 9-11.
