  • Chestnut Nursery School @ Woodgrange, London
Chestnut Nursery School Woodgrange (Rated "Good" by OFSTED in March 2024) is a purpose-built setting located within the grounds of Woodgrange Infant School. They offer high-quality early years education for children aged 0 to 4 years.

The nursery features a spacious, secure outdoor learning area that gives children daily opportunities to explore, play, and learn through nature. The large garden allows for free-flow access to outdoor play, supporting physical development, independence, and creativity in a stimulating environment.

Inside, the space is carefully designed to be child-friendly, with low-level resources that encourage curiosity, exploration, and hands-on learning. Activities include sensory play, messy art, and a variety of open-ended materials that inspire imagination and discovery.

As with all Chestnut Nursery Schools, Woodgrange follows the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) framework, enriched with their core curriculum.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Chestnut is a lovely nursery, staff are attentive and create very close bonds with the children. I also like the fact the space is open plan, free play is encouraged as well as organised activities and the children of all ages mix. The large garden is also a bonus.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.889)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.889) out of 10 for Chestnut Nursery School @ Woodgrange is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 16 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 16 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 4.889 for Chestnut Nursery School @ Woodgrange is calculated as follows: ( (169 Excellents x 5) + (19 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 189 Ratings = 4.889
  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 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Chestnut Nursery School @ Woodgrange is based on 16 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 + 0.1 = 4
    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 50 number of registered child places is 10, which has been reached with 16 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.

I have several years of experience within the childcare sector and I am keen to help all children reach their full potential, smoothing the path to their transition into school. The Chestnut Nursery team provides a safe, caring, nurturing and stimulating environment for your child to achieve their full potential. It makes me happy to know that my team and I can and will make a real difference.
