For nearly 4 years we have been using this nursery, firstly for our son and now for our daughter. In those 4years we have experienced care that has been nothing short of excellent. The food is fresh and made from scratch and I wondered how they managed to get my son to eat foods such as pilchards ...
until they had an open day when we were able to test some of the foods and I realised just how tasty they made it! All of the meals are healthy and my children love it. The staff are all wonderful and really care about your child as an individual. They have gone above and beyond and think up such imaginative and fun things to do with the children. They're always friendly and smiling and all seem to know all of the children. There is a garden at the front as well as the back which the children get to use every day and my daughter has been taken for walks in the pushchair. The preschool room really prepared my son for school this year and helped him grow in confidence. Highly recommended.

My son had attended Busy Bees since he was 8 months old. He has grown into a confident, sociable and content child. He has learnt so many skills that will help him with his transition into school next September. We will be sad for him to leave. All the staff are welcoming and enthusiastic, showing him
great care and attention.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.778)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.778) out of 10 for Busy Bees Worthing is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 12 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.9 out of 5 from 12 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 4.908 for Busy Bees Worthing is calculated as follows: ( (130 Excellents x 5) + (11 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 142 Ratings = 4.908

  • 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 4.87 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Busy Bees Worthing is based on 12 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 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4

    • 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 69 number of registered child places is 13.8. 12 Positive Reviews ÷ 13.8 = 0.87

  • 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.
