Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My child settled in really well to the nursery. With him only being small I was nervous about sending him but I've had nothing but smiles when bringing him in. The staff have made it a lot easier.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My son has been coming to the nursery since he was 9 months old with a short break in between, he loves coming. He has special bonds with the staff that work with him, lately he has been in the school readiness room to help prepare him for his move to school September 2017. I am very happy with the
care my son received whilst at the nursery.

Review from T C (Mother of Child) published on 10 October 2016 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I went to Rabbits room, I watched the end of a flash card exercise being done in two groups. I was very impressed to see the first group taking turns and being kind and with a little encouragement the second group waiting patiently, they spoke to them very gently to remind them they're taking turns.
Squirrels lady is amazing with my son, no matter his mood she just knows just how to speak to him to get him on the go and behaving, she also keeps him in a steady routine which keeps him calm even down to little things like manners and name tags.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.912)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.912) out of 10 for Akhter Early Learning Centre Nursery and Pre-School 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 64 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 64 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 4.912 for Akhter Early Learning Centre Nursery and Pre-School is calculated as follows: ( (704 Excellents x 5) + (52 Goods x 4) + (6 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 763 Ratings = 4.912
  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 Akhter Early Learning Centre Nursery and Pre-School is based on 64 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 124 number of registered child places is 24.8, which has been reached with 64 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.
