The data controller for this website is Ofsted.
We apply the General Data Protection Regulation and other UK data protection law when handling any personal information. When we ask you for personal information we will keep to the law, and promise to:
- make sure you know why we need it
- only ask for what we need, and not to collect too much or irrelevant information
- protect it and make sure nobody has access to it who shouldn’t
- let you know if we share it with other organisations to give you better public services – and if you can say no
- make sure we don’t keep it longer than necessary
- not make your personal information available for commercial use without your permission.
To help us to keep your information reliable and up to date, please:
- provide us with accurate information
- tell us as soon as possible if there are any changes, such as a new address.

Artificial intelligence (AI)
We may use artificial intelligence (AI) software to summarise and identify themes in responses from surveys. This helps us test whether AI can support our work more efficiently in the future. This work takes place outside of inspection activity and therefore does not influence any inspection outcomes.
If you are not satisfied
If you feel Ofsted has not kept its promises about the way we handle your personal information, we ask you write to, or email, our Data Protection Officer, Neil Greenwood.
