S4YC @ St Chads Preschool & Nursery provides quality care and education for children aged 0-5 years between 7.30am and 4.30pm.

Baby Room (0-2 years) – Offering places for up to 6 children, the perfect amount to play and make friends, whilst still maintaining lots of 1-2-1 time with their key person! Children can explore a range of experiences of their choosing, from messy play and creative activities, to snuggling up with stories and songs. The daily routine is simple and flexible to reflect the changing needs of the children, and is designed to foster bonds between children and staff.

Two's Room (2-3 years) - The warm and cosy indoor environments offer a range of activities and experiences designed to excite and engage children of all ages, supported by an experienced and highly qualified staff team. Children benefit from free-flow access to the spacious outdoor area where they can explore nature and learn more about the world around them. Encouraging independence, curiosity and empathy for others is at the heart of St Chads' curriculum and this is reflected within the setting every day.

Preschool Room (3-4 years) – Children are empowered to take control of their own learning by choosing what and how they would like to play, as they are thoughtfully and carefully supported by experienced staff, including qualified teachers. The daily routine is slightly more structured to provide dedicated time for specific teaching, but children still have lots of time to get engrossed in play of their choosing. In the Preschool room, children spend a lot of time outdoors, in all weathers, allowing them to benefit from nature as much as possible. The onsite Forest School provides opportunities for children to explore, take risks and engage with the natural world. The preschool room is located within St Chad's Primary School, leading to fantastic shared learning opportunities as children transition to Reception.

We absolutely love this nursery! The nursery staff are friendly, welcoming, and knowledgeable! I am given updates on what he is doing throughout the day, pictures and sometimes a short video. We have some exciting events coming up in December which as a family can’t wait to attend.

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.855) out of 10 for S4YC @ St Chads Preschool & Nursery 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 17 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.9 out of 5 from 17 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 4.930 for S4YC @ St Chads Preschool & Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (185 Excellents x 5) + (14 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 199 Ratings = 4.93
  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 4.925 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for S4YC @ St Chads Preschool & Nursery is based on 17 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 = 3.925
    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 40 number of registered child places is 8, which has been reached with 17 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.
