Review from Urvashi B (Mother of Child) published on 25 April 2022 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Having very challenging kids, I was very wary when my kids joined the establishment and now, 6-months later, I am a happy and relieved mother knowing my kids are very well looked after. The teachers and management are always friendly, patient, helpful and supportive. All my concerns and questions are
addressed and I walk away confident that my kids are in good hands. The best part is that all the staff members are passionate about their work, and this gives me the comfort of knowing that they all work towards making sure the kids are happy. Ladies, I cannot thank you enough.

Kids settled quickly, really enjoy going to nursery and bring home lots of art and paperwork to proudly show their daily activities. Very good one on one teacher/carer with very useful feedback for parents.

Dear Abi, we believe that children settle best when they have a key person to relate to, who knows them and their parents well, and who can meet their individual needs.

Review from Tamara J (Mother of Child) published on 28 January 2022 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter has been attending Buckingham Montessori Nursery for over a year now, and we are more than happy with our choice, the staff are very caring and accommodating. The management team are very passionate and involved in making it a safe, comfortable and fun place for little ones. The learning
development planning is well thought of, very organised and tailor-made for age, and as a parent, you always receive updates about your child and their daily/weekly progress. They also offer a wide range of mini-courses during the week when the child is around age three that one could sign up for and my daughter is really enjoying it! Would definitely recommend it to friends and family.

My son started nursery in January 2021 and we are extremely happy and excited about the choice we made. I was able to see the changes in terms of communication, interaction with children and much more in a very short time from the beginning of the nursery which gave me confidence and safety in the choice
made. I would recommend it!

Review from Rahela A (Mother of Child) published on 23 September 2021 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter joined the nursery in 2020, she had the most wonderful experience!
As a parent, I highly recommend Buckingham Montessori School for their quality of learning/teaching and also cleanliness being 10/10. Teachers are enthusiastic and really pushed my child to her full potential in a “fun”
way.
The standard and quality of teaching are excellent, learning through play, activities and having a lovely outdoor space is fantastic, really helps build their foundation.
Hygiene and cleanliness are excellent too!
I really felt like all her teachers treated her in a way in which she felt comfortable and safe.
I’ve now chosen the same Montessori for my second child and so far she absolutely loves it just as much!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I am at a loss for words for these amazing ladies. Starting from management, carers, the cook, everyone is showing interest in their job in the welfare of your child.
We worked together and decided on what my daughter needed to work on, we made a plan and worked together every step.
Every issue
I had or question was solved and answered with professionalism.
I moved and still did the drive because no other nursery could reach the high standards Buckingham Montessori has for their children and staff!
Well done !!! Best wishes

My son has been at the nursery for 1 year now and he really does enjoy his time there. The staff are all so friendly and outgoing and so kind and patient with the children. Even throughout the pandemic, when the nursery was open they were so thorough and made sure both staff and children could be safe.
I can not fault them, I would definitely recommend them and I feel very at ease when I leave my son there for the day!

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.915)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.915) out of 10 for Buckingham Montessori School - Edgware 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 12 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 12 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 4.915 for Buckingham Montessori School - Edgware is calculated as follows: ( (134 Excellents x 5) + (4 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 142 Ratings = 4.915
  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 Buckingham Montessori School - Edgware is based on 12 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 55 number of registered child places is 11, which has been reached with 12 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.
