Had our visas approved today however, we had a caveat on our application requirements which were concerned now means our children can’t enrol at any school whilst in Thailand? Is this the case or can they enrol in a student visa or similar should they wish to enrol? Anyone had this or similar?

“A consent letter from your parent to acknowledge and understand that holders of DTV including principal DTV holder and all dependants are not permitted to undertake or participate in formal education programmes in Thailand under this visa category.”
Answer summary
The poster is inquiring whether their children can enroll in schools in Thailand while holding DTV visas, which include a clause indicating that neither they nor their dependents are permitted to undertake formal education. There is uncertainty about whether a different visa category, like a student visa, could allow the children to enroll in school.
