Our son joined Newpark at 1 year old and has been at the nursery for about a year. We initially chose Newpark because of its convenient location in the City, its flexible hours (7-7) and its clear Montessori approach. We have been extremely impressed by the nursery and having now moved nurseries due
to relocation, can only stress how wonderful the setting is.
PROS:
- Very small setting (20ish children), individual approach to each child.
- Consistent Montessori approach, Montessori-trained teachers and plenty of equipment.
- Own chef
- One room for all children, learning from others.
- Weekly reports and photos, personal videos of special days (birthdays etc).
- Weekly library/ park visits, outside time every day.
CONSIDERATIONS:
- Limited outside space.
- Relatively strict sickness policy, leading to many missed hours in the winter.
- High fees even compared to other local nurseries.

Reply from Barry Clutterbuck, Director at Newpark Childcare Centre

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review for our Barbican setting – we are pleased to hear that you had a wonderful experience with us. We take pride in our consistent Montessori curriculum and individual approach to each child.
Despite our limited outdoor space, we are fortunate to have many options for daily outings – such as Thomas More Square/playground, Speed Garden, Barbican Centre, Barbican library and local shops.
Regarding our sickness policy, we have to keep it strict in order to prevent the spread of contagious viruses among children. However, we try to support the parents as much as possible by offering external services.
Our fees mirror the high standards that we offer - our Montessori approach, training and equipment. We do our best to retain our staff and encourage development by offering numerous training opportunities and by paying them the London Living Wage. We wish you and your family all the best for the future.

Current Review Score: 8.0 (8.025)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.0 (8.025) out of 10 for Newpark Childcare Centre is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 1 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.2 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 4.833 for Newpark Childcare Centre is calculated as follows: ( (10 Excellents x 5) + (2 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 12 Ratings = 4.833

  • 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 3.192 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Newpark Childcare Centre 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 26 number of registered child places is 5.2. 1 Positive Reviews ÷ 5.2 = 0.192

  • 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.
