Review from Roxanne S (Mother of Child) published on 22 June 2017 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son really enjoys coming here and sometimes he doesn't want to leave! The outdoor space is brilliant and they go out no matter what the weather which is great for my son as he is very active. What's even better is that if he can't go outside there is an indoor climbing area with a slide to keep
him active.
He is spoilt for choice of activities indoors and outdoors. He has made some good friends through interactive play which is great.
The staff are brilliant and I feel like they know my son really well which makes a massive difference to how happy I am to leave him there. I will definitely be sending my daughter there in the future!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter has recently started at Big Discoveries and I am amazed at how quickly she has settled here. They are a lovely setting, with approachable staff who provide a fantastic range of activities for the children. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them and I'm so glad I chose to send my daughter
here.

My son goes to Big Discoveries and loves it! The owner and manager are fantastic with the children and carry out a large variety of activities every day. My son is thriving there and runs in every day as he is so excited. I couldn't wish for him to be in a better preschool.

Current Review Score: 8.7 (8.744)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.7 (8.744) out of 10 for Big Discoveries Nursery is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 4 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.9 out of 5 from 4 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 4.813 for Big Discoveries Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (39 Excellents x 5) + (9 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 48 Ratings = 4.813
  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 3.931 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Big Discoveries Nursery is based on 4 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 = 3.375
    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 36 number of registered child places is 7.2. 4 Positive Reviews ÷ 7.2 = 0.556
  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.
