Notes:
There is no subject information for three of the synoptic case
studies (Armenia, Angola and Chile) and Lesotho, with its
new skills-based curriculum is not included in this table.
Carrier subjects for Nigeria are currently under consideration.
The accuracy of the chart is reliant upon complete returns
from each country - which researchers cannot guarantee
to be the case.
