Methodology

Sources, classifications, evidence standards, limitations and research approach.

Evidence Standard

Consistent structure. Market-specific evidence.

K12 Country Intelligence applies a common research framework across markets, but does not force uniform conclusions where the underlying evidence differs.

Official and direct sources are prioritised where available. Source quality, coverage and evidence status are made visible within each country platform, and gaps are retained where reliable evidence has not yet been established.

Research is updated as new source material becomes available, with the methodology section providing context for material revisions.

01
Direct evidence first

Official and primary sources are prioritised where they are available and sufficiently current.

02
Evidence status remains visible

Incomplete or unresolved evidence is identified rather than converted into artificial certainty.

03
Updates remain traceable

Methodology provides context when classifications, market evidence or source material change.

Additional Markets

Expanding the research coverage.

Additional country editions are developed as their underlying research base reaches the required evidence and reconciliation standard.

Research note: K12 Country Intelligence draws on official, public and industry sources together with K12 research. Coverage, classifications and underlying data may change as new evidence becomes available. Information must be independently verified before investment, transaction or operating decisions are made.
