# Ofsted Insights

> Ofsted Insights is an independent analytics platform that tracks early years inspection outcomes published by Ofsted (the Office for Standards in Education, Children's Services and Skills) for settings in England. It indexes every published inspection report card under the renewed Education Inspection Framework (EIF) which came into force on 10 November 2025, alongside the historical pre-2025 inspection record. Aggregate statistics on this site are updated daily from the official Ofsted register.

Ofsted Insights is operated by Morgan AI Development Solutions Limited (Company Number 16493544, Registered Office: 3000a Parkway, Whiteley, Hampshire, United Kingdom, PO15 7FX). Provider-level data on Ofsted's own register at https://reports.ofsted.gov.uk is the authoritative source; Ofsted Insights is a derived analytics layer.

## Programmatic access

- [MCP server (Streamable HTTP)](https://ofsted-insights.co.uk/api/mcp/mcp): Model Context Protocol endpoint. Connect Claude (web, Desktop, Cowork and mobile), ChatGPT (developer mode connectors) and other MCP clients to ask natural-language questions about providers, inspections, inspectors, local authorities and nursery groups.

Returned shape: `{ grades: { exceptional, strong_standard, expected_standard, needs_attention, urgent_improvement, total }, counts: { providers, inspections, inspectors, newGraded } }`. Note that the `inspections` count refers to **graded inspections** (inspections with a published report card), not graded evaluation areas.
