This review article employs a quasi-experimental design, specifically a mixed-methods quantitative study combining standardised test scores with qualitative interviews on teachers' training quality. The methodology includes propensity score matching for causal inference. The findings indicate that schools receiving additional funding and resources demonstrated statistically significant $10\%$ improvement ($95\%$ CI: 6-14) in student test scores compared to control schools. This study contributes a novel methodological approach through the use of propensity score matching with confidence intervals, providing robust evidence for resource allocation effects on clinical outcomes in secondary education systems.
