My niece absolutely loves nursery - the staff are amazing and they always feedback on what she has been doing each day when I collect her. She is always excited to go to nursery. I would recommend this nursery to everyone.

Review from Lauren A (Mother of Child) published on 16 October 2023 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter attended this nursery from the age of 2 until she started at school, she was very happy here and we have nothing but positive things to say. They were amazing at settling her in as she had only been home with me up until that point, my daughter was able to make friends and adores her teachers!
The
nursery environment is very welcoming, happy and safe and the team are always there to help with anything as well as keeping us up to date with the daily activities and learning goals. The care and education she received were excellent and this allowed me to feel very confident leaving her here knowing her needs were being met. I'm extremely grateful to the team for our experience here and for preparing her for school, We will definitely miss this nursery and the team especially!

We couldn’t have been happier with our experience at Ark Start. Our daughter loves the nursery and would skip in each morning from week one. The staff are fantastic; they are experienced, caring and really intentional about curriculum and values. I would highly recommend it.

All staff are nice and welcoming. I've noticed a tremendous development in my child both in his ability to relate with others and his gross-motor skills. Overall my child is happy and thriving in the atmosphere provided by the nursery.

Current Review Score: 7.9 (7.929)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 7.9 (7.929) out of 10 for Ark Start John Archer 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 1 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.1 out of 5 from 1 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 4.818 for Ark Start John Archer is calculated as follows: ( (9 Excellents x 5) + (2 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 11 Ratings = 4.818
  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 3.111 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Ark Start John Archer is based on 1 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 = 3
    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 45 number of registered child places is 9. 1 Positive Reviews ÷ 9 = 0.111
  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.
