Stats4Schools

Statistics paint a picture of who we are, where we live, and what we do. They help people, firms and government make choices which shape our lives.
stats4schools is about helping teachers and pupils to get more from statistics. For pupils, we have datasets you can download and include in your own projects, free of charge. For teachers, we have lesson plans and worksheets, which you are free to download and use in class.
stats4schools is managed by the independent Office for National Statistics, and includes data from across government.
