Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My child has been going since 2022, she enjoys going there and interacting with other children and activities. The staff are very friendly, caring and supportive. The preschool has lots of different resources that will support different ages, every day they have exciting activities and have little trips
to explore around the area. My daughter has made progress and is very confident to go to preschool. I love that they have a sensory room and has interesting resources to play and learn for all children with different needs. It's really organised and well presented. My daughter loves preschool.

Review from S N (Mother of Child) published on 28 May 2024 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
A wonderful nursery. All three of our children went to Sunflower Nursery and we could not be happier. The staff strive to create a loving and warm environment. They respect and listen to parents and are very attentive to each child’s needs. We were also impressed at how the nursery helped each of our
children to read. The facilities are great with a lovely play area outside. We also like the open hall for children to move between focused areas, which at this young age is crucial for their busy little minds. They also provided nutritious and a variety of snacks and lunches. As well as breakfast toast. The children help to prepare food and conduct small tasks around the nursery teaching them independence and confidence. Would highly recommend it to anyone and everyone! Thank you!

The staff at Sunflower Nursery in Albert Road are nothing short of exceptional. They genuinely care for each child, showing immense patience, dedication, and professionalism. Their nurturing approach develops a strong bond between staff and children, creating a positive and secure atmosphere. Their
play areas are designed intelligently, encouraging imaginative play and physical activity. It's impressive to see how they manage to create an environment that both excites and educates the children, offering a range of engaging and stimulating activities that promote holistic growth. From arts and crafts to music, storytelling, and interactive play, my son has developed crucial skills while having an absolute blast. Moreover, communication with parents. They regularly organise parent-teacher meetings, events, allowing us to actively participate in our child's education. The dedication and involvement of the nursery in fostering a strong parent-school partnership have been truly invaluable.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.799)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.799) out of 10 for Sunflower Pre-School 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 23 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 23 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 4.799 for Sunflower Pre-School is calculated as follows: ( (220 Excellents x 5) + (51 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 273 Ratings = 4.799
  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 Sunflower Pre-School is based on 23 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 50 number of registered child places is 10, which has been reached with 23 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.
