Really nice and friendly group of young ladies. My child really loves his mornings and is not so keen to leave at the end of his session. He also loves his lunches and rarely doesn’t eat what he is offered.

My boy loves coming to nursery! The staff are very welcoming, with lots of activities for him to play with!
He was a fussy eater before starting nursery, but now he will eat anything!
The staff are friendly and so welcoming.

Brilliant nursery. My son starts school next week, so today is actually his last day, but he has had the best time, with the best kids and the best staff. Would 100% recommend and will be sending my daughter here when I go back to work next year. It’s lovely and spacious, the play areas are brilliant,
and the kids are always doing different activities. Thank you so much for everything you guys do!

My daughter has been attending flying start since Aug 2019. She loves going to nursery and sometimes doesn't want to leave! All of the staff are amazing and just so lovely. The food options are great. They have been great through this pandemic, always communicating with you through email and the app.

My son has been going to Flying Start nursery since he was 8 months old (he’s now almost 2 years) and he loves it. He’s really bonded with the staff there and he runs in and out smiling - I think that says it all. A happy child speaks volumes. Couldn’t ask for more as a parent.

Absolutely fantastic setting! Both my 3 year old and 8 month old are happy within the nursery and the staff couldn’t be more welcoming and friendly. The manager is so lovely and always more than happy to help where she can! My girls have attended the nursery since September and have settled amazingly
and their development speaks for itself since beginning nursery. Couldn’t think of a better place or better people to leave my children with! Two happy, healthy children who are well-fed, comforted and loved at home and within nursery!

My husband and I are so impressed at the care and activities that are provided to our little boy. He has come on so much since attending this nursery and has settled in so well. I love how much time they spend playing outside and the learning and creativity that the nursery provides means that we can
go to work feeling full of confidence that he is being well cared for and enjoys his time there.

My little boy has special needs and is full of energy. The staff at the nursery have helped him so much and helped me as well. If it was not for the time he spends at nursery I would have lost the plot by now. His key worker is an amazing woman as they all are. I completely trust them all and have no
worries that he will be safe and well cared for.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I was super anxious about sending my little boy to nursery for the first time, especially after lockdown and spending so much time with just me, but all of the staff at the nursery reassured me and made the transition really easy on me and more importantly my little one! He settled so quickly despite
only doing one session a week and is really thriving. I love looking through his observations and really enjoy seeing pictures of him at nursery. Being a practitioner myself I appreciate the effort that goes into keeping parents in the loop at all times! I can’t praise the staff enough for making my little boys time at nursery so lovely, he comes out smiling, with a full tummy and clean nappy every session and we have no complaints at all! Massive thanks to all the staff at Flying Start!

My little boy is a full-timer at the nursery and loves it. He enjoys playing with other kids and garden activities. Also he learns fast and loves book reading. I am very pleased with the help offered in regards to potty training. The staff are always pleasant and provides feedback. In addition, there
are pictures of my little boy available online for us to see.

The team have been great with settling my 2-year-old back into nursery and he is a lot happier and content getting back into his routine. They have been really helpful and proactive in helping with his speech which is a little behind and sorting out referrals for extra support. He is always really happy
to go into nursery and loves the people. I also really like the updates of what he's up to during the day that we get on the app and the extra resources we get through it.

Flying Starts Cornwall College has been fantastic with my little boy. He started going at 8 months old and they were so flexible letting us gently settle him in over a few months, useful as he's a lockdown baby. They've been so gentle and kind with him and respectful of parenting choices. We can see
he's been enjoying all the different activities. All the staff are friendly and helpful. I can go to work knowing my boy is safe and well cared for.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.975)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.975) out of 10 for Flying Start @ Cornwall College - Camborne 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 27 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 27 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 4.975 for Flying Start @ Cornwall College - Camborne is calculated as follows: ( (314 Excellents x 5) + (8 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 322 Ratings = 4.975
  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 Flying Start @ Cornwall College - Camborne is based on 27 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 96 number of registered child places is 19.2, which has been reached with 27 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.
