The researchers undertook a curriculum development needs assessment analysis of Thai 7th grade students’ creativity abilities using multistage random sampling to select 476 Bangkok area Thai teachers and administrators. Analysis was conducted from the needs assessment questionnaire, from which data was obtained concerning curriculum development and the techniques necessary for strengthening 7th grade student creative skills.
