Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son has been attending the old station Innsworth since September 2015 we were a bit nervous at first with him going to nursery at two as with our first son we waited till he was three. The staff made us feel extremely welcome and at ease.our son has came on leaps and bounds and we are amazed by his
speech. His key worker goes the extra mile and always does reviews and pictures on tapestry which we love seeing. The nursery is always clean and tidy and the staff always friendly the manager will also always pop out to say good morning . The only thing I would suggest is when new staff start the parents are informed presently so we are aware. Other then that I can't rate the old station highly enough if you are looking for a nursery that goes that extra mile this is the one!.

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.684) out of 10 for The Old Station Nursery Innsworth 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 24 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 23 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 4.684 for The Old Station Nursery Innsworth is calculated as follows: ( (220 Excellents x 5) + (53 Goods x 4) + (10 Satisfactorys x 3) + (2 Poors x 2) + (3 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 288 Ratings = 4.684
  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 The Old Station Nursery Innsworth is based on 23 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 94 number of registered child places is 18.8, which has been reached with 23 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.
