This nursery has lack of management and unprofessional staff. My daughter, 2.5 yrs old, started nursery for the first time on 06/01/25. She attended four sessions (1.5 hours) and she got physical harm in two of them. First time happened from a staff member and second incident happened from another child
(4 yrs old). My daughter was scratched very badly, she had injuries all over her face. They didn't call us when happened, never gave as a professional answer not even an apology for what happened to us. We been told (manager) that "nobody seen anything, nobody knows anything, we knew only when she started crying and her teacher took her to wash the blood in her face" which explains that my daughter has been neglected and not looked after in this nursery. My question is: where have you been when all this happened/to prevent it? Obviously not doing your job. When we booked a tour we had been told many times that we're the best. If what happened to my daughter is your best, can't even imagine what's your worst.

All my sons have attended this nursery. The staff are nurturing and caring. They provide lots of educational activities for the children and routines and structure to prepare them for school. There is free-flow play and the garden is accessible to the children always any weather. They have forest school
in the playing fields of the primary school. Children also meet with the people in the nursing home next door. This gives the children a great opportunity to meet with older members of the community and play games and have new experiences.
Staff are friendly and always available to answer any questions.

Current Review Score: 6.1 (6.125)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 6.1 (6.125) out of 10 for St Hugh of Lincoln Nursery School is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 3.0 out of 5 from 2 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.1 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 3.000 for St Hugh of Lincoln Nursery School is calculated as follows: ( (11 Excellents x 5) + (1 Goods x 4) + (1 Poors x 2) + (11 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 24 Ratings = 3

  • 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 3.125 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for St Hugh of Lincoln Nursery School 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 40 number of registered child places is 8. 1 Positive Reviews ÷ 8 = 0.125

  • 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.
