A mixed-methods research design was employed, conducted in three phases. Phase 1 investigated current policy management conditions through document analysis and synthesized strategic issues using an inductive approach. Phase 2 focused on strategy formulation using SWOT and TOWS matrix analyses. The draft strategies were validated for appropriateness and consistency through a focus group discussion with nine experts, followed by verification with three experts and a sustainability assessment by five experts. Phase 3 involved evaluating the developed strategies'appropriateness and feasibility using a questionnaire administered to 120 participants, including provincial education officers, educational service area directors, and pilot school directors in education sandbox areas. Data were analyzed using mean, standard deviation, and content analysis. The findings revealed that the education sandbox policy management strategy comprises six main strategic dimensions and 31 substrategies, covering key areas such as educational innovation development, inequality reduction, area-based management, and decentralization. The overall evaluation indicated that the developed strategies hold the highest level of appropriateness and feasibility. These findings provide a practical framework for policymakers and educational administrators to enhance school autonomy and educational quality in sandbox areas.\u003Cbr>Keywords: Education sandbox, policy management, decentralization, strategic management, sustainable educational quality. |\n| --- |\n| *Corresponding author.

To achieve this, the Ministry of Education has implemented numerous policies aligned with 21st-century frameworks to enhance educational quality and reduce inequality (Ministry of Education, 2019 ; OECD, 2016) . However, despite substantial budget allocations often higher than other government sectors, national and international assessments, such as PISA, consistently indicate that  \nThai students underperform in essential skills like reading comprehension and problem-solving (Kittiyanawisit et al. , 2021; Office of Education Sandbox Administration, 2020; World Bank, 2018) . These persistent challenges highlight a critical discrepancy between policy intent and practical outcomes, largely attributed to structural disparities and factors beyond students' control, such as socioeconomic status and location (Tangkitvanich, 2019) .  \nPrevious education reforms have failed to yield desired outcomes primarily due to the limitations of centralized policy models. These structures have historically hindered integration among agencies, restricted school autonomy, and lacked effective mechanisms for scaling innovations (Ministry of Education, 2021) . As noted by Tangkitvanich  \nAfr Educ Res J 34  \n(2019), a key structural weakness is the lack of accountability and decentralization. A shift towards areabased reform is therefore essential, requiring a system that empowe","cbCaiuXt3gPzO4QB","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiuXt3gPzO4QB","pdf",256789,"English","# Introduction\n## Education quality policy intent vs assessment outcomes\n## Limits of centralized reform and need for accountability\n## Education Sandbox initiative and legalized decentralization\n## Implementation hurdles and lack of evidence-based strategy","[{\"question\":\"What is the purpose of this study on the Education Sandbox policy management strategy?\",\"answer\":\"The study develops and evaluates an education sandbox policy management strategy to support sustainable educational quality development.\"},{\"question\":\"How were the strategies formulated and validated in the research?\",\"answer\":\"Strategies were formulated using SWOT and TOWS matrix analyses, then validated for appropriateness and consistency through focus group discussion and expert verifications, followed by a sustainability assessment.\"},{\"question\":\"What does the final strategy include, and what were the evaluation results?\",\"answer\":\"The strategy consists of six main strategic dimensions and 31 substrategies.
