Adulterous teachers face the chop

The Education Ministry would increase disciplinary punishments for state school teachers who have extra-marital affairs - from salary cuts to dismissal from the civil service, Education permanent secretary Jaruayporn Thoranin said yesterday.

The Committee for Teachers and Education Personnel agreed in principle yesterday to toughen penalties for teachers and education personnel who commit adultery or have an extra-marital affair, Jaruayporn said.

The current disciplinary punishment was a salary cut but the new ruling would set up a fact-finding panel to look into alleged wrongdoing and if an allegation had grounds, a disciplinary investigation would be carried out, Jaruayporn said.

If a disciplinary inquiry deemed a teacher guilty, punishment could vary from dismissal from the service - with or without pension - to the revoking of a teacher's vocational permit, she said.

However, the committee asked that the new measure be compared with other agencies' regulations before it was re-submitted for consideration on Tuesday, she said.
The spur for increased punishments stemmed from the fact that every time the committee met to discuss disciplinary measures, the issue of teachers' adulterous affairs was raised. Thus the committee felt tougher punishment was needed to stop such offences occurring.

A laugh a minute.

[kingwilly]

because an affair is going to stop a teacher from doing their job.....?

are we back in the 1800's or sometihng....

oh right, education in thailand, sorry i forgot!

[blackgang]

There is a lot of it going on, I think some of it is funny as hell.
Seems we have one here who never been married, never gonna be married is fucking a boss from another school who's wife knows about it, he ends up borrowing the teachers pickup to do things, his wife takes his pickup and rams into the teachers new Toyota, chases her around the country, she can't teach school for a week because she is hiding out somewhere, shit is a 3 ring circus. Been going on for years now.

I do know that when a teacher gets a ticket for traffic that the fine is doubled.
Govt employees are supposed to be a notch above..

[WhiteLotusLane]

Guess without any current constitution it's perfectly fine to treat people in some professions differently than those in others, AND without them even doing something that's a crime in Thai law.

Never a dull day.

[blackgang]

Might not be a crime in Thai law, but it is again the conduct allowed for those that want to teach children.
Just like the breaking of any law for school teachers.

I imagine that it would be the same in any country.

Loose moral character would not be appropriate for someone teaching children.
I do know that the shit about the teacher I know does happen on school property as thats where the wife rammed into the teachers pickup and she comes around the school hunting her and I don't know what happens at the school where he is a boss.

^I think BJ is posting on Ajarn and using KW's nick.

[blackgang]

What the fuk you talking about.
Might be OK for feminists to fuck everyone on school grounds and cause problems, or for the head man of the school to get drunk at lunch time and flop around and live in apartments on school grounds furnished by the school commission, but I do not see it as such.
Your behavior in front of children should be acceptable at least.

[kingwilly]

clown I dont think they are talking about teachers being drunk or fucking around in front of the kids or on the school grounds!

rather they wish to control or pry into the private lives of the teachers.

if it doesnt effect your work why should it matter!?

Yes, Lily, just wot da hell u talking abt??

[Lily]

Oh dear. Who would want to fuck a femminist?

[Spin]

The title made me think about castration, not such a bad idea

[dirtydog]

I think I should rejoin ajarn, just not sure whether being a whore mongering nana plaza teacher would be better than taking the moral high ground and demanding castration would be better for philandering farang teachers

[Lily]

^Do it!

[Texpat]

I'm amused that a country with such a dismal educational record seeks to tighten the clamps on an already shoddy, unkempt, disrepsected workforce.

Perhaps Thai parents are seeking role models for their children -- because generally they themselves can't fit that bill.

[Fabian]

Guess without any current constitution ...

There is a temporary constitution until the new one is done.

[cali kid]

If you can keep your personal life separate from your professional life, then your employer weather it be government or private should respect your personal life and stay out of it.

This is like someone saying they own you, and can set special rules for you outside of the workplace.

Well if you ask me that is Bull fvxing $h!t, and I would either quit or maybe try to start a union.....

Speaking of which; are there any unions in Thailand, namely a teachers union?

[Thetyim]

The National Thai Teachers Union (NTTU, http://www.nttu.or.th )

[blackgang]

Adulterous,, that means married and porking someone else don't it??

well if you doing that, it should be somewhat of a sercret shouldn't it. Not well known, but Thai ain't got enough sense to do it on the sly and they take her to a kareoke joint so everyone can see that they are a real STUD MUFFIN.

[mad_dog]

All Thai Teachers in Thailand who are over 45 need to be culled. They are a joke.

[dirtydog]

And all the farang teachers with non BBC news presenter diction should have their balls chopped off and locked up in a Thai jail for impersonating an English Language Teacher

[buriramboy]

Poor old Stickman.

[stroller]

He, guess what?
Very few English teachers worldwide, outside a few select public schools, can pull this off.

[dirtydog]

worldwide

I note your use of the word "Worldwide", so are we assuming that all TEFLers are worthless then and the proper teachers are still in the UK
