My son has settled in so well at Busy Bees, he particularly likes messy play and the outdoor facilities. He has a nutritious breakfast and lunch every day. He has learnt so much in the 3 months he has been there.

My son is a sensitive boy who finds being separated from me difficult but the staff at Busy Bees have made the transition to nursery very straightforward. He is very settled there and I am fully confident in the standard of care in all respects. He and I both have a lovely relationship with his key
worker, but all the staff are so friendly and involved that everything runs just as smoothly if his key worker is on holiday, which is so reassuring.

Current Review Score: 8.1 (8.113)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.1 (8.113) out of 10 for Busy Bees Lewes 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 2 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.3 out of 5 from 2 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 4.792 for Busy Bees Lewes is calculated as follows: ( (20 Excellents x 5) + (3 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 24 Ratings = 4.792

  • 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 3.321 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Busy Bees Lewes is based on 2 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 = 3.125

    • 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 51 number of registered child places is 10.2. 2 Positive Reviews ÷ 10.2 = 0.196

  • 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.
