Review from Simon C (Father of Child) published on 12 May 2020 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My little girl loves going to Barney Lodge. The staff are amazing, they always have time to talk about what she has been up to throughout the day. The outdoor space is amazing, which lets my little girl run and explore and get really messy which she loves. They have been excellent at sending us information
and activities to do with the children at this difficult time. I would highly recommend this to anyone.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
It took a while for us to decide on a nursery for our son when he was two years old (now aged 7) but as soon as I walked through the front door at Barney Lodge I knew it was right for us all. Our sons key worker helped us to identify that he needed some help with his speech and language and we soon
accessed appropriate therapy. He honestly doesn’t stop talking now and we understand every word.
When it was time for our daughter (aged 3) to attend nursery we didn’t need to look around as we knew that Barney Lodge was the only option for us. The facilities are wonderful and the garden is such a bonus. All of the staff genuinely care and we feel safe leaving our daughter knowing she is so tenderly looked after.
We’ve always known Barney Lodge has been the best place for our children and yesterday confirmed that again for us when the Manager arrived at our front door with a special bag of games for our daughter whilst she isn’t able to attend due to the COVID-19 outbreak. Exceptional.

My son had been at Barney Lodge since he was 15 months. All the staff are extremely professional and they really care about the children. Would definitely recommend.

Considering the circumstances, the nursery has been excellent in communicating with parents and giving us hints and tips of things we can do with the children. Greatly appreciated.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.807)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.807) out of 10 for Barney Lodge Nursery 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 17 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.9 out of 5 from 17 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 4.882 for Barney Lodge Nursery School is calculated as follows: ( (182 Excellents x 5) + (20 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 204 Ratings = 4.882
  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 4.925 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Barney Lodge Nursery School is based on 17 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 = 3.925
    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 70 number of registered child places is 14, which has been reached with 17 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.
