API Schemas

This section lists all the schemas available on the Explore education statistics API.

A schema specifies the data structure of a request or response used in the API. Schemas are typically composed of a set of properties and some information about each of these, including:

  • the property name
  • the property type e.g. string, number, boolean, array, object, etc
  • if it is required or optional
  • a description of the property
  • any validation rules that apply

Examples of each schema are provided to give a flavour of how the schema will look in practice. Note that examples may not accurately reflect a true request / response from the API.
