Ofsted Report-Card Intelligence
4 credits / call (8 on the free plan)An Ofsted report → structured grades, summary and next steps.
Ofsted's Nov-2025 framework swapped single-word grades for narrative report cards — and nothing structures them. Feed in a report and get back the graded areas + grades, a plain-English summary, strengths, areas for improvement and safeguarding status.
Ofsted's 2025 reform swapped single-word judgements for narrative report cards — richer for parents, useless for software, and no existing API structures them. This endpoint reads any report (HTML or PDF) and returns the graded areas with their grades, a plain-English summary, strengths, improvement areas and safeguarding status as clean JSON. The grades are Ofsted's own official judgements; our summary is a flagged, indicative AI reading — and the underlying outcomes are OGL open data, reused properly.

Why developers pick it
Fits the new format
Built for the 2025 report-card framework that existing Ofsted APIs don't parse — the graded areas, whatever they are.
Institution-level, clean
Structures the school's grades and themes only — never names of staff or inspectors. Low-risk by design.
Grades are facts, summary is flagged
The grades are Ofsted's own official judgements; our plain-English summary is an indicative AI reading, always disclaimered.
Open data underneath
Ofsted outcomes are published under the Open Government Licence v3.0 — reused with attribution, not scraped from a walled garden.
