Review from James H (Father of Child) published on 21 August 2020 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We have been very happy with the experience of our daughter at Dolphin Montessori School. She has grown in confidence, starting with one day and now will be on three days when we return in September. Previously she had one on one care either from us or from child care, so naturally, like many parents,
this was a big step for her to attend a nursery and wondered how she would get on and if we had made the right choice. We shouldn't have been concerned. Our daughter quickly adapted and the welcome of both Carole the owner and they have been great. She enjoys going there and often talks about what she has learned and done in the day. We have been very happy with the experience so far. We recommend Dolphin Montessori to other parents in the local area. We like that the premises are relatively spacious, the Montessori method and the homely atmosphere.

Review from Daniel C (Father of Child) published on 19 August 2020 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Really caring and lovely environment for children. Our daughter loved her time there and the two ladies who run it. The Manager has been running it for 30+ years but still has such enthusiasm and obvious affection for the children. Lots of thought goes into creating a stimulating and varied learning
and playing experience for the children. The facilities may look a bit rough around the edges but the garden space is great and the kids have everything they need.

Review from J G (Mother of Child) published on 5 August 2020 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son started at Dolphin Montessori when he was 2 years old and he had previously been exclusively in a one on one childcare setting. The intimate and welcoming setting at Dolphin coupled with the manager's and a particular staff member's loving and patient approach made the settling in process quick
and easy. We all instantly felt part of the Dolphin family and the manager went to great lengths to make us feel included and introduced us to the other families. My son adores them and loves going to nursery, happily skipping off, sometimes without even saying goodbye! I couldn't recommend it enough - it feels like a well kept local secret as I only found out about it through other parents who had sent their kids there before.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.863)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.863) out of 10 for The Dolphin Montessori School is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 9 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.9 out of 5 from 9 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Day Nursery is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.963 for The Dolphin Montessori School is calculated as follows: ( (105 Excellents x 5) + (2 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 108 Ratings = 4.963
  2. 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5'). The 4.9 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for The Dolphin Montessori School is based on 9 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 3.9
    2. 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the number of registered child places in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Day Nursery registered for a maximum of 50 child places has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 20 number of registered child places is 4, which has been reached with 9 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
