The facilities at the nursery are what stood it apart from me. A real connection with the outside using the animals and forest school is brilliant for the development of the children offering them more than just a classroom learning and experience.
The tapestry online journal is a fantastic way to keep the parents involved and up to date with the child's development and just and insight on what their day includes. When we first joined, it was a brilliant way of knowing how relaxed he was after I'd left.
I recommend Silks Farm all the time.

1) The level of care and attention for the children.
2) Food - the food is of a high standard cooked on site.
3) Outdoor space is amazing along with the small animals - brilliant!!
4) Each child's development plan and the way in which they work together with the parent.
5) Holiday club they provide for primary school aged children - brilliant that my now school aged child can attend and be looked after during the school holidays.
6) The fact that they are transferring to a semi electronic system to few each child's development and assessments.
7) Members of staff are all very friendly and can seen to be engaging with the children which I love to see.
8) Activities are fantastic from messy play to toddler yoga, football, french and the in between activities for celebratory days such as: Mothers/Fathers Day, invite a grandparent for tea day, different world celebrations, outdoor activities and simple things such as feeding and helping to look after the animals.
9) On site parking to collect and drop off your children.
10) Price structure
I'm sure there are many many more but overall excellent setting, excellent care and excellent facilities and activities.

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.813) out of 10 for Silks Farm Nursery School 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 18 Reviews in the last 24 months.
b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 18 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.
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 4.856 for Silks Farm Nursery School is calculated as follows: ( (190 Excellents x 5) + (21 Goods x 4) + (5 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 216 Ratings = 4.856
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 4.957 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Silks Farm Nursery School is based on 18 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 94 number of registered child places is 18.8. 18 Positive Reviews ÷ 18.8 = 0.957
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.
