Ofsted’s inspections of supported accommodation

In September 2024, we will start inspecting supported accommodation for looked after children and care leavers aged 16 and 17. In this webinar, our policy leads give an update on our registration work and talk more about the inspection process. This webinar is particularly relevant to providers and commissioners of supported accommodation.
