On Friday 12 June, Ofsted published its updated early years toolkit, operating guide and inspection information, effective for inspections in England from 1 September 2026.
The updated documents can be found here. Ofsted has also produced a summary list of the changes Ofsted has made.
Ofsted published a new early years blog outlining the September 2026 changes which you can read here.
