The Royal Statistical Society is advocating for Statistics GCSE to be made compulsory in the UK. In their recent key recommendations for the statistical curriculum, they propose taking statistics out of Maths GCSE and introducing Statistics GCSE as a mandatory qualification at KS4. This move aims to address the current lack of focus on the statistical enquiry cycle, interpretation, and quantitative reasoning in the curriculum. While Statistics GCSE is not widely studied at the moment, the society is determined to revolutionise statistical education for students!
