Quality Education
Quality education is a human right and a public good.
By being a public good, it means that governments and other public authorities should ensure that a quality education service is available (freely) to all citizens from early childhood into adulthood or tertiary level.
It is argued that quality education provides the foundation for equity in society, where everybody is treated on an equal basis.
By invoking the very concept of 'equity', education has delved into the social core of humanity. Equity involves more than the simple concept of equality. In many situations, it is unfair to treat everybody on an equal basis.

In Thailand, at least at the policy level, quality education has been explicitly articulated.
