The Mention of Rabbi Chananya ben Akashya - Ish Tsadik
Question:
Why do we recite the Mishnah of "Rabbi Chananya ben Akashya" before saying Kaddish D'Rabanan?
Answer

The reason for this is to ensure that there are ten people learning together. If individuals learned alone, Kaddish D’Rabanan cannot be recited over that study. By reciting this Mishnah out loud, everyone is joined together as a group of ten learners (Aruch HaShulchan, Siman 55).
