About Ban Mueang Thong Border Patrol Police School
The Border Patrol Police operates as a distinct police unit within the Royal Thai Police, with responsibilities that set it apart from other police divisions. Tasked with patrolling border areas, the unit serves as the frontline defender of the nation's sovereignty, effectively acting as a protective barrier. Amid the challenging landscapes, the Border Patrol Police encounters numerous individuals grappling with livelihood issues and health concerns. In response, the unit extends assistance by distributing essential provisions such as food and clothing alongside providing medical care to those in need.
​
During their duties, the Border Patrol Police have observed villages where many school-aged children remain outside the realm of education due to the challenging terrain, preventing the establishment of schools by educational authorities. In certain areas, the presence of opposing forces to the government exacerbates the situation, turning these locations into rugged, forested territories. Consequently, in 1955, establishing a school emerged as a solution to this educational gap. The aim was to teach the hill tribe people, enabling them to grasp the Thai language for enhanced communication and mutual understanding. Simultaneously, the school was envisioned to serve as a conduit for disseminating knowledge and technology to improve living conditions and foster stability in governance.
​
Following the Ministry of Education regulations, the Border Patrol Police School was inaugurated in 1956 at Don Mahawan Village, Chiang Khong District, Chiang Rai Province. Named "Border Patrol Police School Bamrung No. 1," it commenced teaching on January 7, 1956. During the initial stages, the school faced financial constraints, relying on support from the border patrol police for funding. Recognizing the financial challenges faced by the students, predominantly impoverished children, the school facilitated their education by sourcing books and school supplies through the generosity of kind-hearted donors coordinated by the Border Patrol Police.
