12 datasets

Education data covers schools, students and outcomes. For US higher education the main source is the College Scorecard, which reports costs, debt and earnings by institution and field of study, and the list adds a College ROI dataset for about 30K bachelor's programs. PISA from the OECD measures the reading, maths and science performance of 15-year-olds across countries, and the New York State Education Department publishes state school data.

Smaller sets cover daycare quality by ZIP code, certification exam blueprints, journal submission requirements, a STEM prerequisite graph and freeCodeCamp student data. Student-level data is de-identified and sometimes suppressed for small groups, so counts may be missing where a cohort is tiny. PISA results use sampling weights and plausible values, and computing simple averages over the raw rows gives wrong answers, so follow the OECD analysis manual.
