Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son has attended the nursery now for nearly 2 years he has enjoyed every single day and always leaves with a smile on his face. The staff are amazing and go above and beyond, I know from the moment I leave him at nursery he is safe and cared for, having the app is brilliant to see what he has been
up to during the week and how he has progressed over his time in the nursery he has gained confidence and grown into a caring, happy little boy who is well prepared to take his next steps into school.

Excellent nursery! The staff are so friendly and attentive, they have really helped my little boy to settle in so much that he runs in every day. He loves the activities and going outside in the large secure play area. It makes it so much easier knowing that he is taken care of so well and I wouldn't
send him anywhere else.

Such an amazing place, indoor and outdoor facilities are wonderful and the staff are just the best! It's such a fantastic feeling when you drop your child off and know they are going to have another brilliant day. I love hearing all about the activities they get up to and seeing all the updates and
pictures.

I can’t recommend Beal Vale nursery enough. The staff are lovely and two particular members of staff are amazing with my son. He used to struggle with his last nursery whereas now, he cries when he has to leave nursery he loves it that much. Even though he’s only been there a few weeks, I can see a
difference in him and he is a lot happier. Thank you to everyone there, you do an amazing job.

Lovely staff that make all the children feel welcome and take such good care of them. I haven't met one staff member who isn't dedicated to their job looking after our children. Both my daughters and two of my nephews have attended this nursery because the family all love how good the nursery is.

We love this nursery. I have 4 children and the older two both went to a few different nurseries but this is by far the best. Our lad absolutely loves it and he comes home saying “I’ve had the best day ever” every day and he is so shy usually.

My child started at Beal Vale pre-school in September, and from the very first day she has absolutely loved it, no tears, no tantrums, she just goes straight in with a smile on her face and she walks out with a smile on her face. She has made lots of friends and she loves all the staff. It has given
me peace of mind that she is having a lovely day, whilst I'm at work.

I can’t sing Beal Vale Nursery’s praises enough. All of the staff are amazing and go above and beyond to ensure that my daughter is happy, safe and looked after. They are so friendly and welcoming and just can’t do enough for you. My daughter absolutely adores them all and loves going to the nursery
because of them. Having moved from a different nursery to this one, I have seen my daughter come on leaps and bounds and is finally happy and settled.

My son loves Beal Vale Pre-school. All the staff do there utmost to care for all the children in the best way I have seen. My son is such a fussy eater and they back me up and help me understand that sometimes this is normal and not a bad thing. They are always there to have a chat or voice any concerns.
My son is so happy here and he has settled so well, I can’t thank each of them enough for what they do for him. I recommend this Preschool to everyone who asks and I always will. I’ve had such a positive time with them and I know my son will have the best experiences until he leaves to start school in July 2021. Outstanding and amazing in my eyes. Thanks so much ladies.

My daughter attends the nursery, my son has just left for school, it is a brilliant nursery in a great location. The setting is the right size inside and has a nice cosy feel. Both my son and daughter enjoy their time and can’t wait to go in the morning. They get to play and make lots of friends and
the outdoor play area is nice and engaging with the nature nursery theme. The staff are all helpful and friendly when you need anything and are on hand if you need to ask anything.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.946)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.946) out of 10 for Beal Vale Pre-School 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 24 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 24 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 4.946 for Beal Vale Pre-School is calculated as follows: ( (267 Excellents x 5) + (9 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 279 Ratings = 4.946
  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 Beal Vale Pre-School is based on 24 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 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 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 32 number of registered child places is 6.4, which has been reached with 24 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.
