Refutable? :confused:
If you're asking about whether it's credible, I mean, yh. It's funded by the Department of Education.
Reputable - you can trust it, a good source, well respected
Refutable - you can refute it, so point out flaws in it and not accept the information

True....
But I guess I would describe that source as reputable and not refutable. Although other studies may have different information, in which case it would be a refutable source.

I mean it's not exactly hard to google the DoE logo and slap it on some random PDF...that said after a little bit of googling it doesn't seem untoward so is probably legitimate.

Terrible acronym though. There must have been a better way to do that...
