I trust the staff at Busy Bees Norwich Meridian with the most precious thing in the world, my little girl! She has been at the nursery for 11 months and has flourished. As well as being particularly caring, they are consummately professional from the excellent managers to the room leaders, the chef
and individual key workers. The staff understand each child and cater for their learning needs and next steps individually. I need to particularly mention the quality of the catering, which is second to none and smells delicious. I have already recommended the nursery to other parents. My daughter is incredibly happy, thank you, Busy Bees.

My child has been at the nursery for 18 months now and absolutely loves it. She has made some special friendships with children and staff. She is always well cared for and is now at the age where she can talk about her day which we just love!

My little boy absolutely loves going to this nursery. I was apprehensive at first as any mother is about sending him, however, the staff soon put my mind at ease. They are all very professional and extremely warm and welcoming. The only problem we have now is that when we pick him up he doesn't want
to come away as he enjoys it so much.

My son enjoys his days at nursery and loves the staff there. He has been there 9 months now and has always been very well looked after and I am particularly impressed with the food as he has food allergies and is personally catered for.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.901)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.901) out of 10 for Busy Bees Norwich Meridian 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 23 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 23 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 4.901 for Busy Bees Norwich Meridian is calculated as follows: ( (250 Excellents x 5) + (21 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 274 Ratings = 4.901

  • 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 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Busy Bees Norwich Meridian is based on 23 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 112 number of registered child places is 22.4, which has been reached with 23 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • 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.
