Since joining the nursery my son has become more socially active and loves to go the nursery everyday. Highly caring, supportive, understands individual needs. Would definitely recommend to others.

Overall I am really happy with my daughter's progress since starting at Holyrood, the social interaction and development has been great to witness. Nursery has contributed to some milestones of hers, for example learning to self-feed. She loves it here!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I am really pleased with the nursery, it has brought our little boy on so much and we are very pleased with all the staff at the nursery. My son really looks forward to coming on his days and looks forward to seeing his ladies. They have helped our little boy so much. We are very very pleased with his
outcome. We can't praise the nursery enough. :-)
Thank You

Review from Ian V (Father of Child) published on 6 July 2016 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Our little man has been going to Hope for 9 months or so, and has made great progress. Rooms are always set out well and imaginatively, and there is a varied programme of activities and events. The home cooked food is really good, with a varied menu and fresh ingredients. Our little man seems to enjoy
it very much judging by his daily report card. Staff are very friendly, and always greet the children by name. Long standard hours and open every Monday to Friday except Christmas Day and New Year's Day. Overall a friendly place, with good standards, food and activities.

Review from Rachel V (Mother of Child) published on 4 July 2016 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
The nursery has been through some changes recently which I believe are now beginning to bear it's fruits. The transition in relation to practical things (not the care this has never been an issue) as a parent, has been hard at times in particular around delay in room developments following reconfiguration
which made it less homely than before.


The staff are always friendly although there can be quite a lot of new faces which may be confusing for the children. The management always appear approachable and listen to concerns and comments with respect and empathy.

I have sent both my children to Holyrood and have always been very happy with the care they have received. Both of my children have developed into well balanced, happy children and I believe their time at Holyrood has been integral in this development.

Review from Diana (Mother of Child) published on 1 July 2016 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son enjoys his time at the nursery. In the morning when I ask him are we going to school he gets his coat and smiles.
He loves to play (especially outside) and the staff always entertain the children well.
Staff and management are so friendly and helpful and know everything about my child.
Having
happy children seems to be a main priority.
I don't think my son is a very good eater but he seems to eat well and try new things better at nursery, the food given to him is very good.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.797)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.797) out of 10 for Holyrood Nursery Salford Royal is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 20 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 20 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 4.797 for Holyrood Nursery Salford Royal is calculated as follows: ( (191 Excellents x 5) + (44 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 237 Ratings = 4.797
  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 Holyrood Nursery Salford Royal is based on 20 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 63 number of registered child places is 12.6, which has been reached with 20 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.
