The Review Score of 6.8 (maximum of 10) for The Barn Neighbourhood Nursery is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.
a) The Average Rating is 5 out of 5 from 2 Reviews over all time. This Average Rating is also the rating value for The Barn Neighbourhood Nursery in Google's Search Results - more info
b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 1.8 out of 5 from 2 positive Reviews in the last 2 years. (A 2 year period has been used as there were no positive reviews in the last 12 months)
a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating of all Reviews over all time. For each review the Day Nursery / service is rated Excellent, Good, Satisfactory, Poor or Very Poor on a number of areas eg Staff, Management etc. The Day Nursery receives points for each rating as follows: Excellent = 5. Good = 4. Satisfactory = 3. Poor = 2. Very Poor = 1. These points are added up and then divided by the total number of completed ratings to generate the average rating.
The Average Rating of 5 for The Barn Neighbourhood Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (24 Excellents x 5) ) ÷ 24 Ratings = 5
b) 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 12 months. If there are no Positive Reviews in the last 12 months, then 2.5 points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 2 years. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with 'Extremely Likely' or 'Likely' in answer to the question 'How likely are you to recommend this Day Nursery to friends and family?'
The 5 points available are broken down as follows:
4 points are available for the first 5 Positive Reviews, 3 points for the first Positive Review and then 0.25 Points for each of the next 4 Positive Reviews.
1 point is available for reaching a target number of Positive Reviews based on 20% of the number of registered maximum number of service users. If the target is partially reached then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Day Nursery with 50 registered maximum number of service users has a target of 10 Positive Reviews, if it has 10 or more Positive Reviews it will receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews will receive 0.7 points.
If there are no Positive Reviews in the last 12 months, then 2.5 points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 2 years. The calculation is the same as above, except the points are divided by 2.
The 1.764 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for The Barn Neighbourhood Nursery is based on 2 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as follows:
3 + 0.25 = 3.25 then divided by 2 = 1.625
Target of 7.2 positive Reviews (36 registered maximum number of service users ÷ 5). 2 Reviews ÷ 7.2 Target = 0.278 , then divided by 2 = 0.139
When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

Both of my children have gone to this nursery. I can not praise them highly enough. The staff are absolutely amazing and all the kids adore them.
The first nursery my daughter went to she refused to eat anything all day. Within 30 seconds of looking around, she went and sat with the other children and started to eat.

My son has just left the nursery and it really was a very sad day, you get to no the staff which are fantastic and they are amazing with the children, I looked at some nurseries for my son and wasn't comfortable with in ten minutes of walking into the barn nursery I was satisfied to leave him with them and within days I was happy to leave him with them, it is safe and it was an environment my son was happy with. Thank you Barn Nursery for everything you have done for my boy, you are truly amazing thank you so so much.
