Ofsted has inspected 24 of them and rated 22 Good or better, 1 of them Outstanding. 43 have never been inspected, which usually means recently registered. Across Hounslow there are 25 places per 100 children under five, worse supplied than England as a whole at 32.
Places per 100 under-fives is registered capacity at nurseries, pre-schools and childminders across Hounslow, divided by the children aged 0 to 4 who live there at the 2021 Census. It compares areas; it is not a count of free places today. It also leaves out the 55 school nursery classes across Hounslow, because nobody publishes how many children they take.
