Hello,

That's great to hear you're doing an EPQ to further your studies :smile:

You could look at government websites, like the Department of Education (DfE): https://get-information-schools.service.gov.uk and also The Office for National Statistics (ONS): https://www.ons.gov.uk.

Another option is to look at the websites of local authorities and national/regional surveys. Universities and colleges often post reports on their websites too.

Lastly, I'd suggest looking at educational research organisations, such as National Foundation for Educational Research (NFER) and the Education Policy Institute (EPI).

Hope this helps, and best of luck!

Thanks,
