  • Little Cubs Academy Honor Oak, Forest Hill Nursery & Pre-School, London
Established by parents with nursery-aged children, Little Cubs Academy is a safe, caring, loving and diverse community that comes together around the children in their care.

Teachers are skilled Early Years Educators who are informed by years of education and experience, and who are guided by their genuine love of their work.

The outdoors is very much viewed as an extension of the classroom for all ages, with respect and love of nature playing a key part in the curriculum. Forest school takes place at the local nature reserve as part of the weekly timetable of activities for all children aged 3 to 5.

The team believe that all children are capable and competent learners, have unique learning styles and learn at their own pace. Children learn best when they are involved in meaningful, purposeful activities that allow them to safely interact with their environment.

At Little Cubs Academy, their goals are to create an environment where children are valued for their individual strengths and gifts, and where growth and learning are interconnected. They are very conscious that they are always learning, and they value each moment of every day.

The nursery and preschool is open to children aged 3 months to 5 years and open 51 weeks throughout the year.

Review from Tamara L (Mother of Child) published on 1 September 2020 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I've been very happy with Little Cubs. The staff are great and really engage with the children. It's clear that the staff take a personal interest in the children, and each child gets attention and affection. It's a huge relief to be able to trust a nursery to take care of your children. The premises
are clean and organised, there are lots of activities organised, and great meals as well. I fully recommend them if you're considering nursery!

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.2 (9.158) out of 10 for Little Cubs Academy Honor Oak, Forest Hill Nursery & Pre-School 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 10 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.5 out of 5 from 10 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 4.650 for Little Cubs Academy Honor Oak, Forest Hill Nursery & Pre-School is calculated as follows: ( (86 Excellents x 5) + (27 Goods x 4) + (6 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 120 Ratings = 4.65
  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 4.508 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Little Cubs Academy Honor Oak, Forest Hill Nursery & Pre-School is based on 10 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 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 = 3.75
    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 66 number of registered child places is 13.2. 10 Positive Reviews ÷ 13.2 = 0.758
  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.
