Abstract
The research objectives are 1) to develop multi-lateral cooperation between educational institution,
schools, communities, temples, local government, public agencies and private sectors to improve the
education quality of the small-sized schools, 2) to compare the two development formats of the multilateral cooperation and our results show no significant differences between the two formats. The multilateral cooperation formed during the processes includes within-school network, near-by-school
network, parent and community network, networks with local government, public agencies and private
sectors, and network with scholars in the university. These networks should be encouraged and
mobilized by further research to produce concrete results.
