The Schools' Census is an annual survey of schools conducted by the
former Department for Education and Employment (DfEE) and its
predecessors which gathered information about school size, types of
classes, numbers and types of staff, numbers of students etc. The
datasets which are currently available via NDAD comprise data gathered
in the Censuses conducted in 1975-1991 and 1993. There are separate
sub-series for local authority maintained primary, middle and secondary
schools, special schools, nursery schools and independent schools.
Schools in England and Wales are included down to 1977, after which
Welsh schools are only found in the independent school datasets (with
the rest covering schools in England only).
