The Nursery School Charlwood is a bespoke, thoughtfully designed nursery, set in a stunning early 17th century Tudor country house and gardens. Benefitting from a large custom garden and expansive on-site Forest School, The Nursery School Charlwood is a truly special place for children to develop during their early years.

The nursery's approach to early years education is inspired by a range of approaches, including Reggio Emilia, Montessori and over 20 years experience in running and owning nurseries. This has enabled the setting and its highly qualified educators to form a wonderfully creative curriculum.

The Nursery School Company passionately believes in offering children the broadest range of opportunities to allow them to unlock their true potential and to become confident, independent learners. The 'Enrichment Activities' programme includes language, sport and music lessons as well as many wonderful excursions to local farms, shops, fruit picking venues, sensory play sessions.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son has regularly attended Charlwood House 2 days a week since he was six months old. He is now in his third class. We have only had positive experiences in our dealings with the nursery. All the staff are caring and approachable and one can tell the children at the nursery are happy. Lots of activities
organised and my son always enjoys himself.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.680)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.680) out of 10 for The Nursery School Charlwood 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 14 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.7 out of 5 from 14 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 4.994 for The Nursery School Charlwood is calculated as follows: ( (167 Excellents x 5) + (1 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 168 Ratings = 4.994
  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 4.686 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for The Nursery School Charlwood is based on 14 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 102 number of registered child places is 20.4. 14 Positive Reviews ÷ 20.4 = 0.686
  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.
