The General Buddhist Scripture Schools are school under the jurisdiction of the National Office of Buddhism. The schools are situated in the monasteries and are established by the Abbot of each monastery. Buddhist monks provide both scripture education (Dhamma study and Pali study) and general education to boys who have finished grade 6.

Many boys are form poor families, ethnic minorities, or are orphans. Moreover, some boys have social problem so that they cannot enter other schools. With their faith and trust in Buddhism, parents send these boys to the Buddhist monks. After ordainment, these boys become novices and can study both scripture and general subject in the General Buddhist Scripture Schools.

Students come from many different backgrounds. A number of the students still suffer from malnutrition, health problems and illiteracy.

Additionally, many schools are situated in temples in small communities. The schools have many students because they gather the novices from other temples nearby. The communities cannot afford alms for all novices as well as other resources for school development.

In addition, the budget from the government is limited. With these constraints, the school cannot provide good nutrition and health services as well as quality education.
