Australian CensusAtSchool
 

Welcome to the Student Area

The Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) has created CensusAtSchool so that you can take part in an exciting Australia wide data collection and analysis project. The data collected for CensusAtSchool used similar data collection methods to those used for the Census of Population and Housing 2006. Participation in CensusAtSchool is not compulsory.
