Changes for early years following Ofsted’s ‘Big Listen’

Ofsted have produced a short video setting out some of the changes that they will make to the early years sector to the Big Listen consultation.

The video only takes a couple of minutes to watch and is a helpful summary: What will change for the early years in response to our Big Listen? (youtube.com)

Some of the changes in the early years sector include:

  • reforming our early years inspection and regulatory framework
  • working with the government to introduce report cards
  • supporting the government’s plans to meet the demand for childcare places
  • asking the government to review the childcare register, especially to tackle fraud in the early years system
  • sharing our insights to drive improvements in the early years sector
