An empty nursery room at the end of the day: small wooden chairs turned up on a low table, a toy kitchen along the wall and bright light from a window.

What your team sees

Four entries from the latest report, as they read to a salesperson.

  • Opened

    Harefield Honeybees Day Nursery opened in Hillingdon. Run by Harefield Honeybees Day Nursery Limited, matched to Companies House.

  • Expanded

    Hamd House Nursery in Birmingham went from 160 to 420 registered places. Run by Hamd House School Ltd.

  • Renamed

    Little Acorns in Oxfordshire is now Kids Planet West Hagbourne. Kids Planet Day Nurseries Limited appears 33 times in this report, including 24 places changes.

  • Group move

    26 settings left the register under The Midcounties Co-operative Limited and 27 opened under Places For Children (PFP) Limited, 25 of them at the same postcodes. The register does not say why. Your team knows who to call.

Every entry gives you the setting, its local authority and postcode, the registered owner, and the company number where it matches.

What you do with it

  • Call openings first.

    654 companies and charities opened a setting in six months. Reach them while they are still setting up.

  • Spot the groups that are growing.

    129 owners opened two or more settings. One conversation at head office covers all of them.

  • Sell the upgrade.

    A setting that adds places needs more of everything you sell. The report shows the old number and the new one.

  • Keep your list clean.

    Closed and renamed settings come off your call list before anyone wastes a visit.

What is in every report

One entry per change at the nurseries, pre-schools, after-school clubs and holiday clubs run by companies and charities in England that opened, closed, changed their registered places or changed their name since the last Ofsted release. Each entry names the setting, its local authority and postcode, what changed, the registered owner as Ofsted holds it, and the owner's Companies House number where it matches. The report covers 150 local authorities and arrives by email as a file that opens in Excel and imports into your CRM.

Settings run by childminders and other individuals are counted in the totals and never named, and so are companies whose name may identify a person.
