My experience with Eyrescroft has been amazing.
My daughter has been in the preschool for a few months and I can already see remarkable improvements in her interactions and creativity.
The staff work with the parents to give the kids the best possible experience in the school.

We are extremely pleased with the nursery, especially the staff and the wide range of activities provided. My daughter absolutely loves going every day and always comes home happy, talking about the games, activities, and new things she has learned. The environment is warm, caring, and very well organised,
which gives us great peace of mind as parents. The staff are incredibly friendly, attentive, and supportive, and it's clear they genuinely care about the children. We are very grateful for all their hard work and dedication. Many thanks to the wonderful team!
Reply from Sue Achurch, Manager at Stars Preschool EyrescroftWe are so pleased that your daughter is so happy in her preschool.

Very happy with Eyrescroft as a setting. My son really enjoys his time there. The staff are incredibly supportive and always make time to talk to myself when dropping off or collecting.
Its an ideal setting for a child who is used to being at home, as mine was, due to the homey feel, care of the
staff and amount of children.
I would highly reccomend.

We understand that all children need care and support when they begin at preschool and by working closely with parents we can develop their curriculum to help them achieve a successful start at preschool.

Once a Stars day nurseries took a care of this nursery every changed to a good side. Everything in general is almost perfect, just need to upgrade play area outside, where wooden things can broke quickly and cause an injury for children.
Reply from Sue Achurch, Manager at Stars Preschool EyrescroftThank you so much for this great review and we are so pleased that you feel the setting is so wonderful. We love the new and improved building and we are looking forward to developing the large garden spaces over the next few months. The children will be involved in lots of growing and caring for plants and looking after the wildlife we have around the setting. We are so lucky to have such a large open space for them to play and learn in. Thank you again and we look forward to sharing the setting with you on the open days which are coming up again very soon.

Hello, I just surprising nice new place can't provide rugs by the doors to collect all the dirt what people and children are bringing when coming in the morning or afternoon.
We are talking about hygiene, kids are with socks inside and especially after wet days.
Will be nice if you can provide.
Reply from Sue Achurch, Manager at Stars Preschool EyrescroftThank you so much for your review and the fabulous ratings. We are so pleased that you love the new and improved preschool and we have so many things planned for the future to further improve the lovely environment that Stars have created. Coming very soon are the new indoor mats for the play areas and also some lovely new Stars mats for the doorways. Hygiene is also very important to us and we have a thorough system of daily cleaning to ensure all areas are safe and ready for the children to use. Thank you for your feedback and we look forward to showing you the new comfortable mats when they are in place. Thank you for choosing Stars Preschool Eyrescroft to provide the care and education for your children, we look forward to working alongside you for years to come.

Current Review Score: 9.5 (9.549)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.5 (9.549) out of 10 for Stars Preschool Eyrescroft 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 11 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.7 out of 5 from 11 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 4.857 for Stars Preschool Eyrescroft is calculated as follows: ( (109 Excellents x 5) + (16 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 126 Ratings = 4.857
  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 4.692 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Stars Preschool Eyrescroft is based on 11 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 = 3.775
    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 60 number of registered child places is 12. 11 Positive Reviews ÷ 12 = 0.917
  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.

Sue A

Job Title: Pre-School Manager Joined: 2000

My name is Sue, and I am proud to be the manager at Stars Preschool Eyrescroft. Like many people, my Early Years career began when my own children were at preschool, from becoming a parent helper to working in the preschool a few hours a week. I began at this preschool in September 2000 and have given all my years to this setting. I have a strong belief that all the children that I meet can achieve and be anything they want to be. My role in helping them and their families is the most rewarding feeling. I aim to be always kind, approachable and continue to learn every day and to value education, whatever that looks like for each child. I look forward to meeting parents, children and their wider family as we begin their preschool journey together.
