Why does Get Information about Schools (GIAS) not register early years providers
Get Information about Schools (GIAS) does not register or hold details of private, voluntary and independent (PVI) childcare providers, including pre-schools and day nurseries in England.
These providers are registered by Ofsted. Details of these providers can be found on the Ofsted website.
When is the Ofsted rating and date of the last full inspection updated?
The Ofsted rating and the date of the last full inspection on Get Information about Schools (GIAS) is updated monthly using the management information published by Ofsted reflecting the last full Ofsted inspection date and rating.
The Ofsted data includes details of inspection reports published in the last month, for example a report that is published in January will be included in the data published in February.
This update to GIAS is usually undertaken in the middle of each month.
