Since my child started here, they have bloomed. They love every second and are always excited to go. The staff are always on hand and happy to help and provide everything needed to boost your child's life skills. Finding somewhere that can help your child develop is key and very important and Marston
Green Pre-School has that on point. They have helped my child develop so much already its amazing to see them grow.

The nursery is excellent! The staff are very kind, enthusiastic and very professional who always look out for the children! My little girl loved it very much, she improved so much due to the attention and support that she received.
The facilities are nice and clean, plenty of light and sunshine, lovely
displays and toys and the garden is spacious! Very happy and satisfied.
Thank you for all of your hard work!

I was taken by the warm welcome I received from the director and staff of the preschool. From day one I was engaged with the school. With such a beautiful welcome, I know that my child is in safe arms.
My son is always excited to go to school and even when he was ill, he was agitated that he wanted
to go to school.
There's so much recognition given to the parents and the pupils. You need not stress yourself to pick your child.

My daughter attends Lavenders Pre-School and absolutely loves it. I am so impressed with how the preschool is run, it is super organised and structured. The staff are great, I really feel they have got to know my daughter and can answer any questions I have. I love the activities they do, the stuff
my daughter gets involved with, the events put on by the preschool/school, the homework, the feedback regularly including pictures. I am just super impressed with everything and have absolutely no concerns or issues to flag. My daughter has really developed and is growing into a confident young girl. The pre-school have also helped me with potty training which has been really helpful!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
This nursery is brilliant! We were apprehensive to move our son from the nursery he had attended since he was 1. On visiting the setting, seeing the environment first hand and meeting the manager and staff, I knew it was the right thing to do.
My son has been attending the nursery since September,
and he is loving every minute and is so excited to attend the two days a week he is booked for.
Thank you to the fantastic team at the nursery for all the hard work you put in to create memorable experiences for our son.

My child has settled in well from the beginning. He can't wait for his days here playing with all his favourite toys. He always comes out with a massive smile on his face so I always know he has enjoyed his time there.
The staff are lovely and friendly, always welcoming. They give good feedback on
how the day has gone.
We highly recommend anyone with children to apply here, it's a great pre-school.

My son has attended nursery/pre school for 21 months and it is truly an excellent setting. There are a range of extensive activities to help my son grow and develop. I am regularly updated with feedback forms/photo uploads and the care diary as to how he is progressing and enjoying his time at pre school.
He enjoys playing with friends and doing craft activities but he especially likes playing outside. The staff are so caring and professional and my son has built a great relationship with them.

My son started in January 2019 when I returned to work after maternity leave. He has settled in brilliantly. He loves attending nursery. The staff are lovely and they all get to know the children personally. They are always coming up with lots of fun activities for the children to do. It’s a lovely
environment where both the children and staff always look happy. We will definitely be sad when the time comes for my son to move on.

Both my children have attended Leapfrogs, of which they both love. My youngest absolutely loves attending the nursery and runs in with excitement when I drop her off in the morning. The staff are all great and extremely approachable. It is a really cosy nursery with great facilities, always something
different going on and always new crafts coming home for us to display! We will all be extremely sad when my daughter is old enough to move on.

This nursery is one that I can honestly trust.
I have found that the nursery itself is clean and tidy, lots of learning options for the children.
We get regular updates from them, an opportunity to gain access to a colourful and creative learning diary where everything is documented and most of all,
we see our child is safe and learning new things every day.
The price is reasonable and the children are all very happy and the staff is very good and pleasant at all times.

My son really enjoys going to nursery.
The nursery has made us both feel very welcomed and they also make my 2 older children welcome when we pick my son up. Staff always have smiles on their faces, polite and very friendly. My son has only been going for 6 months and he has already come on leaps.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My youngest son has been at LeapFrogs since September 2018, after moving from another nursery, due to my older son starting reception at the school on the same site. It is like he has always been there! He has settled in fab, he always talks about the staff and other children by name so I know he has
built some lovely relationships.
I feel the staff get to know each child and always feedback anything new my son is doing/showing interest in etc.
There are lots of areas set up for the children to explore; mud kitchen, garden area, book corner, dress up and role play amongst others.
I like that we receive a daily update in regards to how our son has eaten/napped and any activities that day. As we can then discuss these at home.
He will definitely miss the staff and the dress up area! When he leaves for pre-school in September!

My son has come on so much with his speech and interaction with other children since being at Leapfrogs. He loves the staff and they are always helpful for a first time mum with hints and tips on how I can help at home. The space is great, mud kitchen and cars are my little boys favourite and the creative
artwork he brings home is great to cherish and keep.
A lovely safe environment for our little froglets.

Our son loves attending LeapFrogs, so much so he often cries when we pick him up!
The staff are very friendly, approachable and caring. This is evident in the amount of time our son speaks about them all.
We will be saddened when it is time for him to move on. Our son is a bright and funny little
boy and we feel this is in part due to the care and support from all at LeapFrogs.

Current Review Score: 8.9 (8.882)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.9 (8.882) out of 10 for Marston Green Infant Academy Pre-School is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 4 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.2 out of 5 from 4 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 4.674 for Marston Green Infant Academy Pre-School is calculated as follows: ( (36 Excellents x 5) + (5 Goods x 4) + (5 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 46 Ratings = 4.674
  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 4.208 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Marston Green Infant Academy Pre-School is based on 4 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 = 3.375
    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 24 number of registered child places is 4.8. 4 Positive Reviews ÷ 4.8 = 0.833
  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.
