Creating an Equitable Future: Ensuring Accessible and Quality Education for All to Reduce Inequality Across All Communities
Ongoing Project: CONNEXT ED - Phase 6
CONNEXT ED is one of the projects under the human development strategy through education by CP ALL, which participates in enhancing the quality of education to create high-quality schools in all areas. It promotes a learning process in which students actively engage and apply what they learn (Active Learning) by using problem-based learning (PBL). The project also aims to develop into community learning centers, fostering lifelong learning for both formal and informal learners.
In the 2024 academic year, the company has launched the "Mini Entrepreneur" model to develop learning, vocational, and life skills in alignment with the new draft of the National Education Act. This opens opportunities for students to become entrepreneurs, create community products, and even sell their products within 7-Eleven stores.
The plan includes supporting the initiative with budgets, knowledge, educational materials, and equipment, as well as trained personnel with a public service mindset, who will become new-generation leaders (School Partners). These leaders will work in the field as mentors to develop schools nationwide. This is the sixth phase of the project, which has already reached 610 schools and impacted over 160,000 students. The initiative allows students to become business owners by helping to develop and create local products based on community knowledge. If any product stands out and meets quality standards, it will be considered for sale at 7-Eleven stores.
Currently, there are two CONNEXT ED schools that have excellently integrated academic and vocational education curricula. These schools also produce outstanding community products made by youth. They are: Ban San Pa Sak School, Hang Dong District, Chiang Mai, with herbal inhalers produced by lower primary school students. Wang Phai Phitthayakhom School, Wang Sombun District, Sa Kaeo, with tie-dye fabric bags using marigold flowers, produced by secondary school students. Both products are currently in the process of developing packaging and undergoing quality standard checks for further development and improvement
Through this initiative, the company focuses on developing "Mini Entrepreneurs" in all six regions of Thailand to serve as models for other CONNEXT ED schools. These efforts aim to develop both vocational and life skills for youth, in line with global trends, and are divided into four areas:

It also instills virtues, responsibility, and discipline to help develop students into skilled and ethical individuals in society. Currently, the school has over 947 students, with 294 graduates to date.
Happiness School
Beyond the exceptional approach to education management, CP ALL is committed to shaping talented and ethical individuals through education, aiming to create leaders of the 21st century. Another key aspect of the Panyapiwat Institute of Management Demonstration School is being a Happiness School. When students are happy in what they do, success follows naturally. The school emphasizes learning through play, hands-on experience, self-awareness, and following personal interests and strengths. There is no competition, no ranking, and no comparison. It operates under the core philosophy of "Valuing education that brings happiness," focusing on the happiness and success of the students. Through Phenomenon-Based Learning (PhBL), the school encourages students to engage in learning and create their own knowledge (Constructivism), using Active Learning processes that are student-centered (Child-Centered). This approach fosters lifelong learning (Life-Long Learning). The school provides access to education for all students, including those in schools with a Finnish-style approach, such as the Panyapiwat Institute of Management Demonstration School (SATIT PIM). It also prepares students for learning that can take place anytime and anywhere, coupled with practical hands-on experience (Active Learning). The educational management is designed in 4 key dimensions as follows:
Intensive Curriculum
The curriculum promotes learning by ensuring that students enjoy the learning process, guided by expert teachers both from within the country and abroad. It focuses on Academic English, academic skills, and exceptional language proficiency. The program strengthens students' capabilities in four core subjects: Mathematics, Science, English, and Chinese.
Teaching and Learning Approach
- Active Learning: Learning in the classroom is conducted through active engagement and hands-on practice, allowing students to gain direct experience. There is no ranking or comparison to avoid creating pressure or competition among students
- Digital Literacy: Technology is integrated into teaching and learning. CP ALL has been recognized as an "Apple Distinguished School (ADS)" for the second consecutive term (2020-2026), reflecting the school's vision of learning through technology
- Assessment and Evaluation Process: Each student is assessed individually, with a personalized system of student care. Teachers provide close guidance and counseling to help students unlock their potential, abilities, and self-discovery before entering university with a solid foundation

Self-Discovery Process and Student Development
The guidance process is strong and closely managed by teachers, psychologists, and in collaboration with students and parents. Inspiration is fostered through field trips and lectures from guest speakers who are experts in various fields. This is an integral part of the process of discovering students' strengths, enabling them to set clear learning goals and define their path to success more effectively.

Educational Network
Having strong educational partnerships both domestically and internationally is crucial. For example, in collaboration with the Finnish Embassy in Thailand, camps are organized to extend learning opportunities for students in Finland. There is also cooperation with the New Zealand Embassy to offer cultural exchange programs with universities in China and Japan. Additionally, international students are invited to participate in activities alongside Thai students. These initiatives are part of the educational network that supports students in becoming global citizens, ready to engage in an international environment.
Education Opportunities
Under the social strategy “7 Go Together”, the Company provides academic opportunities for students who have completed Grades 10-12 (Matthayom 4-6), those in vocational education (Vocational Certificate Program and High Vocational Certificate Program), and higher education (Bachelor degree or higher) for 16 consecutive years. In 2024, a total of 37,523 scholarships have been granted, totaling the value of 1,186 million Baht, and there are 10,474 graduates in total from every program. In addition, the Company grants scholarships to students in the Panyapiwat Institute network at the Master's degree level and an opportunity to work with the Company after graduation. The Company immediately offers those who have completed vocational education an assistant manager position and those with high vocational education a managerial position in 7-Eleven stores. The Company also offers a special opportunity to become the co-owner of a 7-Eleven stores in the form of a joint venture (Store Business Partner: SBP) in this academic year, 4,987 graduates have graduated and work with the Company.
Lifelong Learning
Lifelong Learning is another Company’s approach to education in conjunction with the approach to promoting learning through education institutions. In addition to basic knowledge, the Company aims to endorse specific fields of expertise and interests, as well as to fulfil the skills necessary for the future. The objective is to enable youth, communities, and Company personnel to respond to new challenges and changes. In 2024, the outstanding projects were as follows:
Ongoing Project: " Happiness Network in the South" - Year 5
The company recognizes the impact of violence in the 5 southern border provinces, which has led to a lack of educational opportunities for youth. CP ALL, the Panyapiwat Institute of Management (PIM), and the Southern Border Provinces Administration Center have therefore collaborated to expand educational opportunities by providing scholarships and supporting living expenses during studies from the PIM SMART Fund. This includes 3,000 Baht per month for living expenses and 1,500 Baht per month for accommodation, with an income of 12,000-15,000 Baht per month during internships. Additionally, the program encourages graduates to return to work in their hometowns, stimulating employment and fostering economic circulation in the region, thereby improving the income and quality of life for the community.
