The article is devoted to the issue of statistical thinking in pedagogy and research conducted in this discipline. Inspired by the readings of the book by Wiesław Szymczak, The Practice of Statistical Inference, it contains comments on popular associations and misunderstandings about what statistics is, what its principles and goals are, and therefore also comments on the using of statistical methods inconsistently with the underlying assumptions of statistical theory.

The paper discusses to what extent current research meets the expectations of policies aimed at reducing inequalities in education. Initially, inequalities in education were perceived as a result of the incomplete accessibility of schools for disadvantaged social categories. It was believed that inequalities would decrease with the further reforms of education systems. However, along with the expansion of education, research showed that inequality did not decrease, but began to move to ever higher levels of the school system. It raised expectations that research results should help decision makers search for effective solutions to reduce educational inequalities. The author addresses the question of whether research has met this challenge and proposes to extend the scope of collected data to increase its usability in educational policy.
