The Review Score of 8.5 (maximum of 10) for Kids adVentures Radcliffe is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.
a) The Average Rating is 5 out of 5 from 3 Reviews over all time. This Average Rating is also the rating value for Kids adVentures Radcliffe in Google's Search Results - more info
b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.5 out of 5 from 2 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 4.972 for Kids adVentures Radcliffe is calculated as follows: ( (35 Excellents x 5) + (1 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 36 Ratings = 4.972
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 3.528 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Kids adVentures Radcliffe is based on 2 positive Reviews in the last 12 months and is calculated as follows:
3 + 0.25 = 3.25
Target of 7.2 positive Reviews (36 registered maximum number of service users ÷ 5). 2 Reviews ÷ 7.2 Target = 0.278
When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

My daughter has been attending this nursery for a few months now and really loves it.
The nursery is really friendly, I was nervous at first as we had not used a nursery, but they offered lots of settling in sessions until we were comfortable. They work in small groups here and it feels like a family, I've got to know all the staff and they all seem really caring.
My daughter is doing different activities every day, they go out a lot both to the park and on little trips. They do music sessions, sign language, outdoor learning and she is going to be starting to go to swimming soon.
I'm really pleased we decided to go to nursery as I can see she is getting a lot out of it. I would not hesitate to recommend it to other Mum's.

Review submitted from a Website Submission by Laura B (Mother of Child) on Monday 6 November 2017. Relates to November 2017.
The nursery is very friendly and welcoming, we chose it because it is small - our daughter gets lots of individual attention in her learning and development.
The communication is really good, we get daily updates and lots of information on her progress. They do a lot of planning around the activities that she enjoys and really make an effort to link up home and nursery.
There are lots of additional activities which we get free too. She loves the sing and sign group and there is an outdoor teacher that comes in once a week and does dedicated outdoor learning activity. This is quite new and she is really enjoying it. The park is really nearby, they go there a lot and they also go on a lot of trips.

A warm, friendly, home from home nursery. The staff here made me feel very secure about leaving my little one with them for my return to work.
They ensured she had plenty of time to settle into the nursery and I was happy with the way my baby had settled.
Staff were very informative and happy to help with any questions I had as it is the first time I've used a nursery. Since being at the nursery my child's development has come along leaps and bounds and I cannot be more thankful for the care that my child receives.
I always receive a full day account both verbally and in her little book, about the fantastic things she has played, explored and learnt at nursery.
