Early years providers, places and inspection outcomes statistics

Proposals to revise the publication of statistics on early years inspections and the number of registered childcare providers and places.

Last fetched 03 May 2026 · gov.uk
Detail

Ofsted are seeking the widest possible range of views to ensure that the revised publication format takes into account the needs and circumstances of all those who have an interest or expertise in early years. We are particularly keen to hear from people who have been directly involved with early years provision – including children, parents and carers and those who run and commission services.

The consultation and questionnaire documents

The consultation documents are available in two formats:

  • the Word version of the questionnaire can be filled in by hand or on your computer
  • the PDF version of the questionnaire can be filled in by hand.

You can also download the consultation document in either format and then complete the online questionnaire.
