Country profile

Andorra shows progressing readiness, with important strengths but continued gaps across the system. Its strongest results are in Infrastructure (92, 92nd percentile).

Uneven scores across dimensions show where readiness conditions are less aligned. High internet adoption enables broad participation in digital learning and innovation.

Sparse R&D investment and a small research workforce slow experimentation and delay new ideas from reaching learners. Policy and regulatory teams coordinate effectively, keeping reforms aligned and providing the stability needed for long-term educational planning. Gender parity across secondary pathways reflects sustained commitment to equitable participation.

Innovation presents a near-term leapfrog opportunity: performance is just below the global average, backed by enough observed data to support forward planning. Regionally, Innovation lags peers the most, signalling where investment could have the highest impact.

Areas with room to grow: School Access and Gender Parity (90, 69th percentile), Human Capital (73, 54th percentile) and Innovation (45, 46th percentile). These dimensions sit close to global norms and could accelerate quickly with targeted investment.

Some indicators are imputed, so the profile should be read with moderate caution.
