Basically what Stamp said. The rule only applies to Thai government workers, which we can't be by Thai law. The law doesn't apply to us, but lots of Thai school like to allude to it, instead of coming out and saying that their aged biased.

What are the rules of severance pay and being compulsorily retired by your employer?
How's his liver?

It's alright, thanks. A few more than usual early hours trips to the toilet, but by and large I'm pretty sprightly.

Saw palmetto has worked wonders. I've tried a bunch of brands, and I really like this one (no vested interest):

We all know the general rules of severance pay but it's unclear how they relate to those who have reached the retirement age.
Apologise for posting the links.
Think Third World. There's your answer. All we anal Westerners go to steam-age countries and can't seem to get a handle on why we don't get what we expect, complete with a detailed explanation.
...not quite: why many of us don't get our due is thrown in our faces on an hourly basis...the frustration is that nothing can be done about it as we are strangers in a strange land...who refuse to leave...ever...
I'm sorry to hear your school has that attitude; but it doesn't represent the reality for all schools.
My sister, 62 will be teaching at a government Mathyom school. I taught until I was just short of 63 and retired on my own.
I also have personal knowledge of people 72, 69, etc. teaching.
My wife's school just had three Thai teachers retire and promptly hired them back at ฿20,000/mos. on top of their pensions. They are no longer civil servants but private employees.
