  1. Comments from the Scholarship Students “There is certain pride I'm sure everyone feels in being a scholarship student and knowing that you are serving your country…at the start, there are few certain challenges you will face…do not worry. It comes with time and as you go along, your skill will gradually improve. I did really badly in one of my subjects in the first mock exams but in the second mock, my mark in that subject just shot up…” Ms Pimchanok Narenpithak (Maggie) Current course of study: A-levels School: D'Overbroeck's College Scholarship: European Literature/ CHE(Commission of Higher Education) from A-levels to Master “I am honoured and very grateful to be a scholarship student but I do not feel special or superior or anything. To me it means constantly reminding myself to take what I learn here and put it in a perspective of my country. .. I am studying the way of thinking, problem-solving methods and approach, and not copying western architecture or certain style. …It is a peace of mind having the OEA here in the UK. Every staff at the OEA are friendly and help us a great deal. Not just dealing with our scholarship and monitoring our progress and things, they also give us insights into living in the UK…” Ms Nawanwaj Yudhanahas (Orm) Current course of study: BSc Architecture. Year3 School:Bartlett School of Architecture, University College of London Scholarship: Undergraduate to Master degree

  4. Office of Educational Affairs: OEA Office of Educational Affairs (OEA) is a division of the Office of the Civil Service Commission (OCSC). The evolution of the OEA is indistinguishable from the history of taking care of Thai students in the UK. This can be dated back as far as 1881 when Prince Prisdang, a son of King Rama IV, was bestowed by King Rama V (King Chulalongkorn) the responsibility of taking the first group of 9 students to Europe in 1881, finding the schools for them and supervising their studies so that none would be "idling or lagging behind in his work.“ Prince Prisdang therefore became the first de facto person to superintend Siamese students in the United Kingdom i.e. the Superintendent. Since then there are 21 Superintendents –a title later changed to Minister (for Education) - taking care of the Royal Thai government scholarship and privately funded students. Prince Prisdang was born on Feb 23, 1851 to Prince Jumsai, the fourth eldest son of King Rama III and went with King Rama V and other royal cousins to Singapore for his education. He did very well and later was sent to England to study engineering. He became "the first known Thai to study and graduate from a Western University", and won many distinctions and awards. Even the Times Magazine reported the Prince taking the first prizes in so many fields of studies upon his graduation at King's College in 1876. The prince was the core member of the Young Siam Society. (M.L.ManichJumsai, “Prince Prisdang's Files on His Diplomatic Activities in Europe 1880-1886)
