Details
The data may be useful to review the inspection outcomes for the largest providers for monitoring and comparison, by:
- academics
- local authorities
- social care services
- children and social care providers
We are considering reducing the frequency of this transparency data publication to once a year. This would mean that data on outcomes of children’s homes inspections would be published twice a year:
- as part of our accredited official statistics each July
- as a transparency data publication at the start of each calendar year
Before we decide whether to make this change, we would like to know how it might impact you. Please let us know your views by the end of November 2024. Email socialcaredata@ofsted.gov.uk.
