The mean.
Which measure of central tendency represents the numbers that appear most often in a set of data?
The mode.
Would the mode be the best measure of central tendency for heights in class?
The variable, height, is a continuous variable. The mode is not a good measure of central tendency for continuous variables because you would need a very large number of observations (pupils) before you are likely to get a useful number of repeat values. The modal class may be a good measure. Provided you do not have extremely short or extremely tall pupils, the mean would probably be the best.
