  1. Updates to the children's social care and early years datasets. Children's social care has now been split out into LA and non-LA datasets. Minor refinements to the guidance include new sections referencing independent schools inspected by the Independent Schools Inspectorate and a section about upcoming inspections for social care supported accommodation providers.

  2. Added state-funded schools data as at 31 December 2023.

  3. Recently uploaded datasets contain data related to the latest official statistics publications. In the ‘Five-Year Ofsted Inspection Data guidance', a statement about publishing data on the deprivation index that affects children's social care settings has been removed. This data will not be published for children's social care.

  4. Updated all the data files to include sub-judgements. Split the data in the 'Children's social care: Five-Year Ofsted Inspection Data' ODS file into 2 separate worksheets: non-local authority providers and local authority providers.

  5. Republished further education and skills: Five-Year Ofsted Inspection Data due to the 2021 dataset, having event date rather than publication date in the ‘Published date’ field.

  6. First published.
