  • Leeds Montessori School & Day Nursery, Leeds
Leeds Montessori School & Day Nursery has been established for over 22 years.

Situated in Roundhay, Leeds, the nursery is located in a Grade II listed Victorian building with a large outdoor area and is just next to Roundhay park.

The ethos is warm and loving, with a highly qualified staff team supporting the children to develop into confident, independent learners. The aim is to unlock every child's true potential. They follow the Montessori ethos and EYFS programme, allowing the children's to become independent for future life and education.

The nursery chef prepares nutritionally balanced, healthy and tasty meals that the children love and often help to prepare.

From September, the nursery will be delivering Bilinguasing Spanish classes led by a secondary school Modern foreign Languages teacher. Children pick up languages so quickly and develop a wide range of skills without even realising! The classes will provide the opportunity to have fun singing different songs and nursery rhymes, with a range of multi sensory props, including parachutes, instruments, bubbles and puppets! In September, the children will be learning basic greetings, numbers, colours and the names of some farm animals.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We had a parents' forum meeting today with management team. It was very reassuring to see how much the nursery has improved since the recent changes have been implanted and also how there are ongoing plans for further development. My wife and I are very happy in general with the progress our 2 years
old girl is doing both from social but also development perspective. Looking forward for next meeting!

My child loves attending nursery. She has come on so much. She loves Spanish on a Tuesday morning and loves to come home telling everyone what she's been learning on her days at nursery. She talks positively about nursery to everyone she sees.
Staff are lovely and helpful.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Our daughter has been at Montessori since 9 months old and has bonded very well with all the staff and key workers, from babies to toddlers.
All the staff have to say is lovely and bubbly and a pleasure to have. She has learnt a lot and come a long way and gets on very well with her friends and loves
joining in with everything.
She sometimes doesn’t want to leave at the end of the day, she likes it that much.

Review from K H (Mother of Child) published on 14 February 2024 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We have been incredibly impressed with Leeds Montessori Nursery since our child started in the Baby Room at just 1 years old. Staff went above and beyond to make sure our little boy was happy and settled. As a very anxious parent staff undated me and ultimately made sure we were fully informed on every
account. There is a great reassurance, love and care which runs throughout the nursery, and all members of staff are very caring and engaged. The ethos of being outside and learning actively was important to us. With outdoor learning being so important it is brilliant to see how this is effectively used and loved by our little boy. Our now toddler is happy and settling making great relationships with other children and staff. When staff know your child inside out and can ensure they are happy, safe and learning that reassurance us we definitely picked the right nursery for us as a family.

Leeds Montessori is an excellent Nursery, we hold the employees in high regard and have always been grateful for their hard work and above-and-beyond attitude. The staff are the heart of the nursery and both our children have thoroughly enjoyed their time there, making a great deal of friends. We feel
Leeds Montessori has given our boys the best start in life and will always be thankful for the care and early years education they have received.

Current Review Score: 8.6 (8.563)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.6 (8.563) out of 10 for Leeds Montessori School & Day Nursery 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 5 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.8 out of 5 from 5 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 4.800 for Leeds Montessori School & Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (49 Excellents x 5) + (10 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 60 Ratings = 4.8
  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 3.763 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Leeds Montessori School & Day Nursery is based on 5 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 = 3.5
    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 95 number of registered child places is 19. 5 Positive Reviews ÷ 19 = 0.263
  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.
