Summary

Chapter 12 is a brief chapter that sets out the research aims, design and processes of several collaborative research projects conducted by a large team of researchers from the University of Cambridge and Nazarbayev University. It covers the three-year period from 2018 to 2020 to describe the rationales and methods used for data collection alongside the philosophies of reporting applied in forming three regional case studies. It ends by signalling how the case studies and earlier research findings from 2018 combine to allow for contrasts between regions and layers in the educational system that inform on the variations and commonalities found pursuant to systemic educational reform.
