Online ofsted report

[SYLVIA]

Anybody else had this happen? Just looked for my ofsted report on the website and even though I paid my latest fee invoice in may, I don’t appear to exist. After multiple tries I’m just nowhere to be found!! Good job I’m not looking for work at the moment

Yep, I can never find mine. I quite like the fact that I am in charge of who reads it (by giving them a copy).

I think it's to do with data protection and privacy, I remember quite a while ago now I had to give permission for my name and address to be shown on the Ofsted website. I decided I didn't want my full name and address details to be shown so I don't show up on searches either. If you look using your EY number your reports will show up but not your details. As a lone worker I decided I didn't want my full address out there for everyone to see! On our local council search facility it only gives out your rough location not your road and number.

Yes you're absolutely right Pixie dust - I remember filling that out too.

[SYLVIA]

Yes I remember that. But I agreed for my details to be shown. The other thing is, I don’t even show up using my EY number! And I’ve been on there before. I’ll ring them tomorrow or send email if I can’t get through

I'm the same Sylvia - can't find it using my EY number.

I can find myself by using my Ofsted number, but there was a time when I couldn't even do that and I was worried I wasn't registered for some reason!

Our local council lists all the registered providers on their website, along with a link to their latest inspection reportvand that was the only way I could find myself.

Just checked and I can find myself again!
