Is it accurate to consider structure as a data type?

Question

Based on my understanding of data types: computers can only store 0 and 1, it cannot store a negative number, real number, character, etc. Thus, data types were created to represent (encode) each of these data types as a set of 0s and 1s, and then decode it when necessary.

But what about structure:

struct Student
{
    int age;
    float gpa;
};

Student s1; s1.age = 17; s1.gpa = 3.42;
Student s2; s2.age = 16; s2.gpa = 3.64;

This is like an object, so I don't need to write:

int student1_age = 17;
float student1_gpa = 3.42;

int student2_age = 16;
float student2_gpa = 3.64;

So, is it correct to consider a Studentdata type in the same way that a floatis a data type?

One difference between the structures / arrays and base types ( int, float, boolean, charetc.) is that the struct / array can also tell us about the connection of the base type (s) inside them. All variables within the structure are related to the structure and should be considered as a whole. An array tells you that all of its atoms are parallel. But a variable of a basic type simply means that an autonomous, simple mathematical or logical value is stored there.
