Hulme Hall is a truly magical place. Our little boy has flourished since joining here. The staff provide a welcoming and safe environment for the children, enriched with exciting and engaging learning opportunities that make the children skip through the doors each morning. Children are gently encouraged
to develop their independence skills but a safe and reassuring hand is always there should they need it. The head is magnificent. She greets all of the children each morning with a warm and welcoming smile, and is always there for parents with words of reassurance and wisdom. We drop our son off each day knowing that he is in the best possible hands in an outstanding environment, and that's everything you want as a parent.

Hulme Hall Pre-School is an outstanding nursery and I am so happy that my son has settled in here. He has struggled to settle in at his previous nursery. The head teacher and all the staff there are wonderful and so caring. On one occasion, my son needed to go back into nursery when I picked him up
because he had a soiled nappy and one of the teachers helped me to look after my other 2 children in the car (5 year old and a 10 weeks old baby) - I don't know how to thank her. You will also find the head teacher welcoming the children into school in the morning and also saying bye to them which is really warming. My son's teacher always gives me an update on how my son has been that day and she has also supported my son with his potty training.
The lunch and snacks the children have are very healthy and my son loves it.
The nursery facilities are good and is always very clean.
Someone recommended this nursery to me and I would definitely recommend this nursery.

A fantastic nursery with caring staff and a warm, nurturing environment. Our child always comes home happy and excited about the engaging activities.


My son adores his teacher and often pretends to be her while playing at home.


Other members of staff are extremely helpful.


My daughter loves

talking about her teachers, especially one member of staff in particular who is incredibly helpful and shares ideas for activities to build the kids' confidence at home.


Two members of staff in particular are absolutely lovely.


The head of preschool is very supportive and keeps us updated on school activities. She always welcomes the children and parents with such positive energy.

Hulme Hall Pre-School is an excellent nursery. Our daughter suffered from severe anxiety in other nurseries resulting in us removing her from nursery settings all together. Thankfully we were told about Hulme Hall Pre-School by a friend and decided to try it. Our daughter has settled beautifully and
her confidence has grown so much. The headteacher along with the preschool staff have worked so well with my daughter and have gone above and beyond all my expectations. From the first day they made sure to give my daughter the extra attention she needed which resulted in only what I can describe as a miracle. My daughter went from a child who could not spend 5 minutes alone in a nursery (previous nursery) to spending the whole day in Hulme Hall Pre-School with a big smile on her face. Thank you so much to Hulme Hall Pre-School. You made what seemed impossible, possible. My daughter continuous to grow with you and I am forever grateful to you all.

The Head, plus the team at Hulme Hall have extremely high standards and it really pays wonders in the children's development. The facilities are great, lots of space, outdoor play areas, great activities and quality food from the high school catering. Our son completed pre school (kindergarten) here
and he is now flourishing in his Reception, he was fully prepared for school life and we are grateful for Hulme Hall in setting him up so well. Our daughter is now in Early Years and loves it, she asks when she is going each day with excitement had has really grown in confidence since attending.
We discovered Hulme Hall thanks to a recommendation and are very happy with our experience over the last few years so thank you.
Also special note for the Christmas Nativity, not something all nurseries will do but it is incredible how much fun the children have performing and a joy to experience as a parent. The team work hard to put this together and it creates everlasting memories. Well done!

I can't speak more highly of this preschool setting. The staff are amazing. The manager has such love for what she does. I have total faith in the staff and my son is so happy there. They have lovely routines which will prepare them for primary school. There's a great balance between education and play.
It's a social and safe environment and I am just so glad we chose to send our son here. The highest of praise! Thank you.

Hulme Hall Pre-School is exceptional. We are so happy our son has been going here since he was 2 years old. He is now in Kindergarten and loves going to school. He has grown in his confidence and talks about his teachers and friends with such joy. As parents, we always feel included and updated with
what is going on. We have enjoyed participating in all the events throughout the year. This is a truly wonderful school.

As a parent, we can only hope when we give our children to caregivers they will look after our little ones to the best of their ability. Hulme Hall Preschool has exceeded all my expectations and hopes for that. My son joined this preschool very nervous and it was an adjustment for both him and us as
parents to make the transition, however from day one they have reassured us beyond measure, looked after our son with the utmost care and kindness and communicated with us fantastically.
My son loves Hulme Hall, has made great friendships and created special bonds with his teachers and has come on so much since he started. I can't speak any higher of this fantastic environment for the children to learn and play and being looked after by the most wonderful teachers. They should all be very proud of themselves and we as parents will forever be grateful to have our son be a part of their outstanding school.

Hulme Hall Pre-school has good facilities, both indoor and outdoor. Kids' school activities have been uploaded to the app which parents have access to see. Teachers are outstanding in terms of loving and caring for pupils. Good communication with parents about the growth and development of kids. Face-to-face
meetings help with individual teaching and training plans. Thanks, Hulme Hall Pre-School, well done.

My child has been attending for over a year now. At the start I was a very reluctant mother however, they put all my concerns at ease and are always happy to have a chat. The change and growth in my son has been truly remarkable. He has learned so much and has become so much more confident and I know
he enjoys his time at Hulme Hall. The head of Hulme Hall and her staff are nothing less than amazing. They have high expectations and only want the best for the children. Me and my husband couldn’t ask for anything more.

Hulme Hall is so good that you almost don't want to tell anyone about it. The Headteacher exudes enthusiasm, warmth and passion. Her love of the children and her setting is infectious, and this resonates through her team of staff who are incredibly experienced and knowledgeable (a far cry from the teenagers
we found working in many other local nurseries!). Every day there are lovely activities planned and high expectations of the children who are professionally loved but challenged in equal measure. Our shy daughter who struggled to settle in another big brand nursery thrived here and couldn't have been any more ready to walk confidently through the big school door this September. I couldn't recommend Hulme Hall more. Thank you for everything you've done for us.

Hulme Hall Pre-School is an environment wherein my 2-year-old child has flourished remarkably. I have found all staff to be pleasant, considerate and diligent in their efforts to provide a supportive and nurturing space that encourages the positive development of our youngest members of society.
We
as parents are wholly thankful to the staff and children at Hulme Hall for creating the most wonderful community that has learning, play and kindness at the centre of all they do.
From educational resources, delicious and nutritious meals, communication, safeguarding, staff training and leadership, we are confident that Hulme Hall operates at the highest standard. Once again, thank you for your exemplary care for our daughter (who herself adores her nursery life, teachers and fellow peers).
The output of our children’s progress both socially and educationally is a testament to the outstanding and quality input of all those who collaborate to make Hulme Hall Pre School simply the best.

My dear son attended Hulme Hall right on his 2-year-old birthday, he was showing tremendous progress, which we received prompt communication via the app and also a formal school progress report. When he left at 38 months old due to our family relocation, he was able to read a Stage 1 book independently,
knew all shapes, able to hold a pencil to draw and use a pair of scissors.. all thanks to the Headmaster leadership, the structured curriculum and their approach to nurture each child as an individual.
Every day after school, my son showed excitement and occasionally he would play out what he had learnt at school, singing nursery songs that I didn't know or telling me a story that I had not heard of.
Due to our family relocation, the Headmaster had offered us some flexibility which demonstrated how she and her team care about the child's wellbeing. They were so understanding and supportive of our situation and I just can't thank them enough.
Highly recommend this setting!

Hulme Hall Pre-School has been an amazing start to my children's education. My eldest son is in kindergarten and my youngest is in the early years and they have both progressed massively over the year. They have enjoyed creative learning as well as manners and discipline. The teachers are hands-on and
informative, very friendly. Any issues I had, the teachers were on board to resolve as soon as possible. Thank you to the team at Hulme Hall, we have had a great time there.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.910)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.910) out of 10 for Hulme Hall Pre-School is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 13 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.9 out of 5 from 13 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 4.981 for Hulme Hall Pre-School is calculated as follows: ( (151 Excellents x 5) + (3 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 154 Ratings = 4.981
  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 4.929 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Hulme Hall Pre-School is based on 13 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 70 number of registered child places is 14. 13 Positive Reviews ÷ 14 = 0.929
  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.
