Abstract
This short article points to the key ideas in teaching the mathematics of statistics in Key Stage 3 (KS3) of the curriculum in England for 11-14 year olds. Research indicates that engagement with data, seeking to extract value from it, is key. Informal inferential statistics as an approach that makes it feasible to address inferential statistics through the data handling cycle at quite a young age.
