Review from W Y (Mother of Child) published on 1 February 2026 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We have had a wonderful experience at the nursery. My daughter attended previously and my son is there now. It bridges the gap perfectly between nursery and reception, helping the children feel confident and ready for the next stage.


The staff are truly exceptional. They are caring, dedicated, and

always go above and beyond for the children. It is clear that they have a genuine care for each child, and this shows in everything they do. Both of our children have come on in leaps and bounds during their time here.


The facilities are fantastic, offering lots of outdoor space that the children can enjoy even in the rain! We particularly appreciate that it is a mixed setting and that the children interact with other children of all ages, which means they are exposed to older children too. This helps them develop confidence and social skills in a natural way.


We would highly recommend this nursery to any family looking for a nurturing and enriching environment for their child.

The nursery is absolutely fantastic with a very calm atmosphere where the children are relaxed and happy and enthusiastic about learning. The teachers are always available to talk about the children's day and how they are getting on. The teachers really get to know each child individually and it has
been fantastic to see my daughter grow so much in confidence since starting the nursery.

What a wonderful place! Our son was in a good nursery before but at St Benedict's he has thrived. I'm continually impressed with the professional nature of the staff, the lovely facilities and how much my son seems to do each day. The fact the nursery is part of a bigger school will make the transition
to reception class that much easier.

Review from A K (Father of Child) published on 10 July 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Lovely, experienced staff and excellent facilities that are well maintained. Lots of care and effort is put into getting the kids ready for school. The facilities and space for the children is really impressive. There is perhaps a little more exposure to Christian/ Catholic practices than expected -
for example saying grace before eating lunch - which may not suit everyone's preference. The quality of the lunches is ok but could be better. There is a good selection of fruit provided at snack times. Each child has a scrapbook for each term, which is a nice way to see their learning. There are plenty of events for parents that are well run and email/online communication is generally good and frequent.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son's settling in period has gone exceptionally well and this is certainly down to the fantastic team and nurturing atmosphere. The variety of rooms is clearly beneficial in creating a stimulating colourful and fun environment to learn and build friendships in. The feedback via newsletters is lovely
and these regular updates keep you in touch on many levels. This is my third child here and we are fortunate to enjoy its high standards again.

My daughter has been attending St Benedict's nursery for the last 2 months, and has enjoyed every day there from day 1. The nursery itself is a really happy and homely environment, with excellent resources and facilities. I have been really impressed with how much my daughter has learned in such a
short period of time, and have found the staff to be highly committed and caring people. I would definitely recommend this nursery.

Current Review Score: 9.1 (9.095)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.1 (9.095) out of 10 for St Benedict's School Nursery is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 5 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.2 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 4.881 for St Benedict's School Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (53 Excellents x 5) + (5 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 59 Ratings = 4.881
  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 4.214 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for St Benedict's School 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 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 = 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 35 number of registered child places is 7. 5 Positive Reviews ÷ 7 = 0.714
  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.
