How it works

Built on public data. Delivered in your dashboard.

Ofsted publishes inspection outcomes, ratings and reports for every registered setting in England. We collect it, structure it, and link it to your setting automatically through your Ofsted URN.

Your data never passes through us. We surface public information and combine it with insight from across the sector, so you can see where you stand and what to do next.

What it costs

Nothing, for good.

Everything on this page is free forever, for any nursery, whether or not you use our nursery management system. From 2027 we will offer paid API access for organisations that want the data in their own systems. The dashboard stays free.

1

Connect your URN

Enter your Ofsted Unique Reference Number when you sign up. We look up your setting on the public register and verify ownership by sending a confirmation email to a known address at your setting's domain.

2

We pull the data

Inspection history, your current rating or report card grades, published reports and area comparisons appear in your dashboard. No uploads, no spreadsheets.

3

Track and compare

Follow new reports in your area as they publish, see how local grades are moving, and know where you stand before your next inspection.

What's included

Everything here is free. More is on the way.

Live

Ofsted rating and history

Current rating or report card grades, every previous inspection, and links to the published reports, pulled automatically from a setting's URN.
