Ofsted has today (Monday 5 February) issued its annual point-in-time online surveys for the following social care providers:
- residential special schools
- further education colleges with residential provision
- children’s homes (includes secure children’s homes and residential special schools registered as children’s homes)
- fostering agencies (includes independent fostering agencies and local authority fostering agencies)
- adoption agencies (includes voluntary adoption agencies, regional adoption agencies and local authority adoption agencies)
- adoption support agencies
- residential family centres
- boarding schools
- supported accommodation
We highly value the responses we receive. They help to both inform future inspections and build a national picture of people’s experiences with their respective providers. We have a blog post explaining how we use the responses.
