  • Kindred Cator Park Montessori Pre-school, Beckenham
A warm and welcoming pre-school set in the heart of the lovely Cator Park, in Beckenham. The pre-school uses the Montessori teaching method, which is based on a deep respect for children as unique individuals.

They are one of only 50 other pre-schools in the country to have successfully completed the accreditation three times in a row. Children are free to choose, explore and enjoy learning experiences in the nursery's outdoor and indoor classrooms. This method has shown to help foster independence, confidence, a sense of pride in their achievements and positive self-esteem from an early age.

Teachers are passionate about the nursery's mission to create inspiring worlds full of awe and wonder for little ones to grow and thrive in. Each small class has a dedicated teacher to meet the teaching and learning needs for the specific age.

With access to the park and lots of outdoor adventure space, the children’s days are filled with unique moments and opportunities to enrich their development. At Cator Park, they create meaningful relationships with every parent so you will never miss an opportunity to share in the joy of your child’s developmental and learning moments.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
A wonderful nursery/pre-school, very knowledgable, friendly staff who really care. Our little one loves going to nursery and is excited to tell us all about it when we collect her. The staff are exceptional so nurturing, they provide a very high standard of care and education. Our little one has learnt
so much already in just her first term and she gets very excited for Fridays Meditation and relaxation. She also loves going on nature trails in the park which is just outside. Facilities and equipment/toys are great. We cannot find a fault.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
An exceptional pre-school which creates a rich learning environment and instils a sense of responsibility in the children who attend. Staff seem engaged and care greatly about the development of the children. Located in Cator Park it provides a wonderful setting with activities often in the park. We
had a wonderful experience with our first child who went on to start primary school in September 2019. Our second child has just started as a result. Highkt recommended.

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.647) out of 10 for Kindred Cator Park Montessori 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 13 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.8 out of 5 from 13 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 4.822 for Kindred Cator Park Montessori Pre-school is calculated as follows: ( (130 Excellents x 5) + (17 Goods x 4) + (5 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 152 Ratings = 4.822
  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 4.825 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Kindred Cator Park Montessori Pre-school is based on 13 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 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 3.825
    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 46 number of registered child places is 9.2, which has been reached with 13 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.
