The research aimed to investigate the barriers to quality international education to Burmese migrant children in Thailand. The approach to migrant education within the international development concept has been of great concern to many scholars. Only the non-formal migrant schools and the formal Thai schools options are accessible to Burmese migrant children studying in Thailand despite the availability of other schooling options. This paper analyses the possible barriers such as policy differences between the two countries, curriculum design and language used, international funding, freedom of choice as well as conflict are some of the factors that determine access to education. The study employs the theory of capability as a form of presenting an understanding towards international development and education. (Published Abstract)
