Cooperative learning (CL) is a teaching approach to develop learners' qualities and competencies to meet the goals of the 2018 General Education Curriculum. However, in secondary schools, these days, cooperative learning in mathematics in general, and specifically in teaching Statistics, has not received adequate attention. As a result, cooperative learning has not achieved the desired outcome. The paper presents the current situation of cooperative learning at secondary schools in teaching Statistics by collecting and analyzing survey data from teachers and suggests insights serving as a basis for proposing measures to support teachers to implement cooperative learning effectively, contributing to improving the quality of secondary school education. The research results show that most teachers consider cooperative learning to be an effective teaching method, yet its use in the classroom has not been adequate and is still hindered by many difficulties.
