Review from Jinny Z (Mother of Child) published on 20 April 2016 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
This nursery is really good to recommend to my friends. The staff are very nice. Let us feel very comfortable. The manager has good experience to take care children. My son very love her. The environment and facilities are brilliant but more than anything it was being able to leave my child totally
safe in the knowledge that he was looked after, cared for and loved. Communication with staff and updates was very good, his meals were varied and plentiful.

Outstanding set up with many varieties of educational and developmental toys. Staff are also outstanding, very welcoming. Pleasant, keep you informed of everything, make you feel relaxed, secure and content. I can see my child developing more and more every time I pick him up. Cannot fault anything.
Good range of healthy meals. Amazing nursery.

Current Review Score: 8.2 (8.218)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.2 (8.218) out of 10 for Kids 1st Ashbrooke Sunderland 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 2 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.2 out of 5 from 2 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 Kids 1st Ashbrooke Sunderland is calculated as follows: ( (24 Excellents x 5) ) ÷ 24 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 3.218 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Kids 1st Ashbrooke Sunderland is based on 2 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 = 3.125
    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 108 number of registered child places is 21.6. 2 Positive Reviews ÷ 21.6 = 0.093
  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.
