Dunkys Day Nursery Gulliver’s is situated in the Westbrook area of Warrington, within the grounds of the Gulliver’s World Theme Park. You can access the Forest school from the main car park.

Children here enjoy an authentic Forest School environment in the vast amount of woodland that the nursery occupies. They explore the area's canopies, bell tents and unique structures, while the team deliver a wide range of activities that use nature as a learning tool.

Each member of staff is an experienced and dedicated practitioner. Many hold childcare qualifications at level 3 or above and all of the team are paediatric first aid trained. They have a friendly but professional approach, and have excellent relationships with the parents.

My daughter loves forest school! She looks forward to it every week. The staff are brilliant with the kids and you can tell they really care. She always comes back happy, a bit muddy, and full of stories. It's such a great way for her to learn and build confidence while being outdoors in nature! It's
a really lovely place.

Current Review Score: 8.0 (8.042)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.0 (8.042) out of 10 for Dunkys Forest School @ Gullivers 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 1 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.0 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:

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

    The Average Rating of 5.000 for Dunkys Forest School @ Gullivers is calculated as follows: ( (12 Excellents x 5) ) ÷ 12 Ratings = 5

  • 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 3.042 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Dunkys Forest School @ Gullivers 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:

    • 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 = 3

    • 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 120 number of registered child places is 24. 1 Positive Reviews ÷ 24 = 0.042

  • 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.
