Review from Clare H (Mother of Child) published on 7 October 2020 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
An amazing nursery. Staff are fantastic with the children. They update you on everything you need to know. They have a great variety of food cooked on-site for lunches and snacks. There is a huge outdoor space with loads of toys for the children to play with. The rooms are great and all have toys and
games that are suitable for the ages in them. Very friendly environment, totally safe and secure. My daughter had an amazing time there and still talks about it even though she's at big school. Hopefully, we will have another child and they will also attend this nursery when old enough.
Reply from David Hancock, CEO at Lower Beeding Day Nursery & Pre-schoolHi Clare, thank you for your very kind comments about the nursery. Outdoor play is a big deal for us and we are very fortunate to have such a lot of wonderful outdoor space. So pleased to know your daughter enjoyed her time with us - wishing her well for the next steps in education.

Review from Jane P (Mother of Child) published on 7 October 2020 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I’m so glad I chose to send my son here, I can’t fault it, they’ve been absolutely brilliant with him from the start, especially as he’s never been left with anyone else other than my family.
I will definitely be sending my youngest here too. I love that when I pick him up and he tells me how much
fun he has had at nursery, and that’s all he talks about for the rest of the day!
Reply from David Hancock, CEO at Lower Beeding Day Nursery & Pre-schoolDear Jane, thanks for your very kind comments - it's great to hear that your son loves the nursery and that he is content during his time with us. Long may he continue to talk about his nursery experiences!

We would highly recommend A Step Ahead. Our daughter currently attends and absolutely loves it. We, as parents, feel very supported and are able to ask for guidance when needed. Our daughter has grown and developed in so many ways, building relationships with others and confidence in herself. This is
all down to the hard work the nursery staff put in, organising exciting and new activities for the children to enjoy. We are informed of any updates, especially at the moment with coronavirus. We always feel involved and a part of our daughter's experience at nursery.
Reply from David Hancock, CEO at Lower Beeding Day Nursery & Pre-schoolHi Cheryl, thank you for taking the time to review the nursery.

Thank you for entrusting us to care for your daughter; your trust and seeing her develop is so rewarding.

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.936) out of 10 for Lower Beeding Day Nursery & Pre-school is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 19 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 4.961 for Lower Beeding Day Nursery & Pre-school is calculated as follows: ( (219 Excellents x 5) + (9 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 228 Ratings = 4.961
  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 4.975 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Lower Beeding Day Nursery & Pre-school is based on 19 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 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 3.975
    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 54 number of registered child places is 10.8, which has been reached with 19 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.
