According to the new curriculum guidelines issued in 2008 for elementary and junior high schools and issued in 2009 for high schools, a strand for statistics has been newly established in mathematics. Then all students must now learn the basic statistics and school educators draw their attentions what the new curriculum guidelines imply for statistics education. In this article, I show first the current background where statistics education is needed in knowledge-based society and secondly give a concrete explanation on a modernized framework of statistics education to be promoted internationally, where it is paid more attention for students to develop their problemsolving skills and competencies. Finally I show the table of statistics contents treated in the new national curriculum in Japan and discuss the need to support school education through industry-academia cooperation towards future human resource development.
