Review from Cherise C (Mother of Child) published on 4 August 2015 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My daughter has just left Sunny Corner after three years and she will miss it terribly. The Clever Crocs were treated to an absolutely fabulous graduation expertly hosted by the Manager and the Deputy. Every child was made to feel special with their own cap and gown parade followed by a brilliant party
with an excellent children's entertainer, who entertained adults and children alike for over two hours. My daughter has made great friends here and could not wait to go to nursery every day to see her favourite staff who were always helpful, friendly and above all caring. The new improvements will freshen up the facilities. It is important to see where money is spent and the activity garden has been greatly improved over the last year. My daughter has many happy memories and the graduation party really was the icing on the cake.

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.880) out of 10 for Busy Bees Birmingham Kings Heath 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 18 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 18 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 4.930 for Busy Bees Birmingham Kings Heath is calculated as follows: ( (200 Excellents x 5) + (15 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 215 Ratings = 4.93
  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 4.95 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Busy Bees Birmingham Kings Heath is based on 18 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 = 3.95
    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 84 number of registered child places is 16.8, which has been reached with 18 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.

Maria Shahid

Job Title: Centre Director

I’m Maria Shahid and I am the Centre Director here at Birmingham Kings Heath. 
Having completed a BA Hons in Early Childhood Studies, I have always prioritised ensuring every child gets the very best start in life.
Throughout my career, I have worked at a range of Early Years Education settings and thrive to work with the team, families and children to achieve outstanding outcomes for all.
I have a genuine passion for exciting, enabling, environments and will often be found exploring these with our children extending their learning and creating awe and wonder in moments of brilliance. 
Being a parent myself, I am fortunate enough to be able to see through the eyes of a parent and educator which pushes me even more to ensure that the curriculum we deliver takes everybody on a journey to reach their maximum potential. 
In my spare time I enjoy spending time with my family, especially my two-year-old son, who is thriving at Busy Bees with me.
I look forward to meeting you all and welcoming you into our family.
