The quality assurance system in the past found many problems such as (1) teachers having incorrect concepts for assuring and evaluating the quality of education (2) lack of involvement and participation from parents, the community, and external organizations and (3) the system is not suitable with the context of school. The purpose of this study was to design an educational quality assurance system for driving policy of educational reform by using theory-based evaluation and having 3 specific objectives: (1) to develop a program theory about an educational quality assurance system (2) to develop this educational quality assurance system, and (3) to examine and evaluate this system. The sample comprised of documents and stakeholders. The data was analyzed by content analysis and descriptive statistics.
