Abstract: Ban Wang Takian School is a small primary school under Kanchanaburi Primary Education Service Area Office 1 in Thailand. It has 93 students and 5 teachers. It is a school with the problem of having not enough teachers for its classrooms, since it has eight classrooms from Kindergarten II (second year kindergarten) to Prathom Suksa VI (Grade 6) levels. Learning achievement of Prathom Suksa VI students in the 2016 academic year, based on the Ordinary National Educational Test (O-NET) results, of five learning areas before implementing the Educational Network Operating Management System (EdNet-OMS) was at the 41.67 percent of the full score. Later on, the school director initiated the implementation of the Educational Network Operating Management System (EdNet-OMS) that was connected with the Distance Learning Television (DLTV) system of the Distance Education via Satellite Foundation under the Royal Patronage in order to utilize the benefits from DLTV up to its full potential. Then the initiation was complemented by the development of teachers to equip them with the ability and skills for learning management via the information technology system, and the creating of the cooperation network involving the parents and local community. As a result, the O-NET result of Prathom Suksa VI students in the 2017 academic year was increased to be at the 46.71 percent of the full score. The EdNet-OMS system was composed of the following five operational steps: (1) the creation of awareness step; (2) the development of the Educational Network Operating Management System (EdNet-OMS) step; (3) the empowerment step; (4) the monitoring and follow-up of the operation step; and (5) the evaluation step. The most important factor that enabled the operation to achieve success was the factor of the administrator with innovation leadership.
