Review from Kate M (Mother of Child) published on 21 December 2017 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I felt I should take time to comment on how wonderful all of the staff of Woodcroft Nursery School are. The school staff and head have gone way above and beyond the call of duty to accommodate my needs in a very difficult situation, and in turn, eased my stresses. Having put my elder daughter in two
different nurseries when she was pre-school age, I have to say Woodcrofts attitude and caring nature, makes them stand out from all of the rest.


I can't thank them enough for all that they have done for me and my family. They truly do deserve an outstanding status, I only wish I had found them years ago, and brought my elder daughter here too. The head takes the time to engage with the children and is an extremely caring individual, which, I believe, makes a world of difference. I feel so lucky to have my youngest here for the next few years before she starts school. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending them to all of my friends and family. They truly are THE BEST!!!!

Current Review Score: 8.4 (8.438)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.4 (8.438) out of 10 for Woodcroft Nursery 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 3 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.4 out of 5 from 3 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 5.000 for Woodcroft Nursery School is calculated as follows: ( (35 Excellents x 5) ) ÷ 35 Ratings = 5
  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 3.438 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Woodcroft Nursery School is based on 3 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 = 3.25
    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 80 number of registered child places is 16. 3 Positive Reviews ÷ 16 = 0.188
  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.
