Under a democratic system, the policy is the most crucial factor that made the party is selected to be representative of the citizen. Furthermore, “Favorited” policy is a key success factor to indicate which party would be selected as “Government” or “Opposition.” Similarly, in Thailand, all parties propose the policies that hopefully would gain a number of voters. Regarding to official Thailand national statistical office report 2015, there are 696,321 voters (who work for school, both public and private school, ministry of education’s staff are included) in educational system and 13,954,735 related voters (students from primary school, secondary school, undegraded students and graduated students) that is around 29.7 % of total voters. As the historical data from 2001 to 2011, all of Thailand’s government came from the party got 11,637,495 – 15,387,223 voters then voters from the educational system was being focused from all parties. Educational policy was used as the key attractiveness for the party from the democratic system. Every composition of the educational system was defined and typed for understanding that finds “How to assess them?” Especially in school level, government welfare was created for teacher and more increasing in every government. Finally, the teacher’s average total income was higher than others who similarly work for the government. By theoretical assumption, the performance of teaching process should vary with input on return to someone who is responsible. The empirical results from national testing examination show controversy on the assumption, result from national testing examination stable and trend to die-down while total return to staff of teaching process is significantly increasing and still trend to higher. But not for the coup, educational policy from the revolutionary party look like base on idealism, focus on problem-solving by theory, that sounds good by logic at the first but there are many limitations to the theory. National testing’s result increased scores by the revolutionary party’s administration but not significant gain scores as people’s expectation. Although, the coup’s policy on education was not canceled or inhibit the favorite educational policy but is not the same advantage as a democratic party. Outcomes from teaching process required more than during democratic government that effect to educational staff’s norm, more strictly control process and more systematic process (also create some non-skill and time consumed in the same time). Finally, resistance to enforcement/punishment was the major cause to create “Ignorance.” The primary purpose of the study is to explore the adverse effect of the educational system by the relationship between cause, educational policy, and education output, historical result from Thailand’s national testing score. Analysis of data was based on documentary research methodology from empirical evidence, both official and un- official documents were analyzed, the content analysis was used in this study. The bias of pollical interest is declared by self-support in the study; without any support by both democratic and revolutionary parties.
