We could not be happier with our experience at Eversfield. Our daughter joined their nursery in September 2024 and has loved every minute. The teaching staff are wonderful and have formed an amazing bond with her, they have helped her not only improve her reading, writing, colours, maths, etc., but
her emotional maturity, confidence and ability to play and work with other children. The facilities are also second to none and it's amazing she has access to onsite swimming, yoga lessons and tennis. Overall an amazing nursery and school.

Since joining Eversfield I feel like my little boy has come on leaps and bounds in many areas. He's happy to attend, walking in happy every day and talks to us about the lovely relationship he has with the staff which as a parent is very reassuring and great to hear.
Staff are professional, easy to
talk to and what we feel really set them aside from our other experience of nursery/school is that they really took the time to understand our child; for example adapting learning where possible to suit his learning style and working to his strengths which most definitely has got the best out of him.

Our son is coming up to completing his year at Eversfield Nursery, and went to the Kindergarten before that. We could not have been more impressed with the experience he has had. We looked at numerous other private and state schools, but from the moment we arrived for our "look-around" at Eversfield
we knew it stood out from the others. What they offer is a very caring, holistic and personalised approach to early years education. Our son has a slight speech delay, and the support they have shown could not have been stronger. They've made us feel like nothing is too much trouble, have worked with the speech therapist we have been seeing outside school, and have helped him develop at a rapid pace. Most importantly, they have ensured he is fully integrated with all his classmates, and we observe both in school and at parties how well liked and included he is.
We would wholeheartedly recommend Eversfield School to other parents.

My daughter absolutely loved her time in the nursery at Eversfield Preparatory School. From the very beginning, the teachers were warm, attentive, and incredibly supportive. It's clear they genuinely care about the children and go above and beyond to create a nurturing and stimulating environment.


One

of the biggest changes I've noticed in my daughter is her growing confidence. She has blossomed socially and emotionally, and I truly believe the school has played a key role in that development.


I would highly recommend Eversfield to any parent looking for a caring and high-quality early years experience for their child.

We couldn't be happier with our decision to choose Eversfield.
After visiting many schools, we knew from the moment we stepped into Eversfield that it was the right place for our son. The staff are experienced, caring, and have provided the support he needed to grow and thrive.


He has had a wonderful

start to his education-he's confident, engaged, and, most importantly, happy. Communication has been excellent throughout; teachers and staff are always approachable, responsive, and genuinely supportive.


Our son has thoroughly enjoyed the wide range of activities Eversfield offers. These experiences have helped him discover new interests and hobbies that might not have otherwise been part of his daily life.


We wholeheartedly recommend Eversfield Nursery to other parents looking for a nurturing, enriching start to their child's educational journey.

Our child has had a wonderful start to their education at Eversfield. The staff are approachable, supportive and professional. Our child loved attending such a caring and nurturing setting; where he had so many different learning experiences including a puppet workshop, cooking, nature walks and a trip
to a farm. The nursery was extremely effective in preparing him for nursery where he has continued to make good progress.

We had a wonderful experience with this nursery! When my triplet daughters started, they didn't know any English, but the teachers and staff were incredibly patient and supportive. Within just three months, they began speaking and communicating in English. The staff took great care of them, and my girls
were always excited to go to school every morning. The teachers were kind, helpful, and kept us informed whenever needed. We are so grateful for their dedication and highly recommend this nursery!

My son attended both the Kindergarten and Nursery at Eversfield, and it has been a fantastic experience for him. The environment is kind, friendly, and nurturing, with plenty of outdoor space and a beautiful nature area to explore. The structured and diverse curriculum kept him engaged, and he always
looked forward to attending.


The on-site facilities, including the swimming pool and gymnasium, ensure a safe and convenient setting. Educational trips further enriched his learning. Communication is excellent, with regular photo updates of activities. Staff are supportive and involved, and there are great links with the wider school.


Overall, I feel confident that my son has had the best possible start to his education. I highly recommend Eversfield Nursery for any parent looking for a safe, engaging, and well-rounded early years experience.

Eversfield has been wonderful for our family, I have an older child in the Preparatory School and my daughter is about to complete her time in Nursery and move into Reception. Having seen my daughter progress from Kindergarten through to Nursery, 2 full academic years, I can say that it has provided
something different to her at each stage of her development.


Both of my children experienced other day nurseries before coming to Eversfield and there really is no comparison, mainly due to the experienced and consistent team in the nursery. The staff are fantastic, warm and friendly, and incredibly experienced. It provides a supporting, engaging and nurturing environment and I really enjoy the great communication from the team, with regular updates and photos related to their learning and the fun that they are having each day.


I couldn't be happier with our experience and would highly recommend Eversfield Nursery.

My daughter has thrived at Eversfield. It truly provides an engaging and nurturing environment with many great facilities. Having seen my daughter progress from Kindergarten through to Reception here, I can see how far she has come along in terms of her educational development and as an individual.
This is primarily due to the strong foundations set by the Early Years team.
The staff are warm, friendly and have a wealth of experience. They really do get to know each child individually in order to help them develop; teaching independence, social skills and building their self-confidence.
There is a wide range of extra-curricular activities available alongside the after-school supervision. My daughter has thoroughly enjoyed tennis and the Yoga Club. Learning is extended beyond the classroom through different ways such as the nature area, trips and workshops/visits from external agencies/individuals.
It has been wonderful to see my daughter flourish at Eversfield.

Eversfield Preparatory School Nursery has been fantastic for both of our children.
The focus is very much to nurture children while giving them a great head start on to reception.
Our children learnt phonics and numbers through fun, interactive conversations and play.
The outdoor areas include
space for football, climbing, role play and the school fields for sports day, picnics and running around, like little people should!
We always felt our children were very well cared for and we were regularly updated on their day-to-day through the school portal.
The children also get to join the main school for nativities, shows, summer and Christmas fairs.
Would highly recommend Eversfield Nursery.

Eversfield’s Preparatory Day Nursery was an absolute delight for my daughter. From the very beginning, we felt welcomed and reassured by the friendly staff and inviting atmosphere. My daughter thrived there, thanks to the engaging activities and the wonderful opportunities provided. I also appreciated

My daughter started nursery in September 2022. She is always met with a warm, friendly and nurturing team. My daughter loves to go to school. Extracurricular activities such as yoga, drawing and languages, sequenced topics and the strategies used to bring books and experiences to life have really helped
encourage her reading and given her a wider understanding of the world. Her teacher will use fun games to consolidate her learning. The outdoor space, the indoor pool, and the gymnasium have really helped develop her physical skills and she really enjoys participating in sporting activities. The most important thing to me is that my child is treated as an individual and that she is in an environment that fosters a lifelong love for learning. I believe that teachers have a strong understanding of my daughter and will provide effective support when needed. The level of care she receives is outstanding and in times when she has been unsettled, she has always been reassured.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.952)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.952) out of 10 for Eversfield Preparatory School is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 21 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 21 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:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.952 for Eversfield Preparatory School is calculated as follows: ( (239 Excellents x 5) + (12 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 251 Ratings = 4.952

  • b) 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 Eversfield Preparatory School is based on 21 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 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

    • ii) 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 56 number of registered child places is 11.2, which has been reached with 21 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
