Ofsted's decision to bring early years inspections in house reflects the vital importance of high quality early years support

"High quality early years care and education can make or break a child’s future prospects.  Those who enter the school system at a disadvantage face a lifetime of playing catch up

“Today’s news that inspections of early years providers will be delivered directly by Ofsted, bringing them into line with schools, should offer welcome reassurance to parents and providers. It will help to ensure consistently high quality inspections across the entire education community and sends a clear message that children’s life chances are influenced long before they start school.”
