Excellent purpose-built stimulating facility with easy parking for drop-off/pick-up. The staff genuinely care about our child who has settled in wonderfully, loving his time there. The progress reports are very thorough. It's a full 5 stars from us.

A fantastic nursery, spacious and clean. Nice big garden for the children to play in with plenty of toys/activities. The staff are so lovely, kind and friendly. Each day is different with different activities to do/help them learn. My son comes home each time he goes with a big smile on his face and
says he's had a great day. I can not fault this nursery in anyway, my son will leave here in the summer for school and I will then put my unborn baby's name down to start when it's his time. Highly recommend this nursery. All the staff are amazing and work so hard.

We couldn't be happier with our experience at Flying Start @ Pool, nearly two years in and our girl is flourishing, the environment is brilliantly child lead, her confidence is growing all the time and she adores all her grownups and has formed wonderful relationships with her peers. The admin and organisational
side is also top notch with wonderful communication and updates, you can see that they all simply love the children and that was always the most important thing to us.

Both my children attend this setting and they both absolutely love it there, always so happy to go in. They have grown in leaps and bounds since being there. They are always busy doing fun/interesting/educational things that will help them grow as a person and prepare them for school. The staff are
all so friendly, very happy to help in anyway. Would 100% recommend.

The nursery is a big and busy nursery which I was concerned could make my family or my little one feel one of a large number - however, this simply isn't the case. The staff know my child inside out, they know what he loves to do, how he learns best and what excites him - they provide opportunities
that make him want to go to nursery every day. The nursery building and facilities are fab, they are so big, that my boisterous boy has all the space he needs inside and outside to be physical but also the space to focus and learn with his friends.


I love that the nursery have been teaching my child independence skills, he can toilet independently, get himself dressed and they cook most days so he can now peel vegetables, safely chop and is now always wanting to help cook at home which is such an important skill. The nursery always have time for my questions and everyone is so friendly - I really recommend this nursery, it is definitely helping to get my child ready for school.

Flying Start Pool is a truly wonderful nursery and preschool, staff can't do enough for the children and also support parents. My son went to the preschool and had a fantastic time made friends who he still has and my daughter has been through the nursery and is now in preschool loving every minute.
Great environment for learning with loads of space and clean and tidy.

Our child attends this nursery and they love it. They have been in since 9 months old and the transit for both of us was made super smooth. Since then they have thrived, physically and fundamentally! The app they use is very good, communication is great between us and them. Really would recommend this
nursery!

Every single member of staff is so kind and lovely. Whenever we've needed extra support you have all done what you could to accommodate. The reports on daily activities are so thorough, I love seeing what my daughter has been up to through the day and hearing about her activities with her little friends.
I know she's in safe hands with you all and she is really thriving here.

Our daughter has shown such a big change in her speech, communication and social skills since coming to nursery. We cannot recommend little ones

Amazing nursery, and amazing staff. My little boy loves coming to pre school and they've really helped him come out of his shell. He never said a word when he started and had a speech delay but after all the great work they did with him he is no a chatterbox! Couldn't recommend them enough

What a bunch of superstars. They have looked after our daughter for nearly 2 years and have nurtured her out of her shell. She's now a happy, confident, and friendly child who is very ready for her first days at Primary School. We can't thank the team enough for their support and will miss them all.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.946)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.946) out of 10 for Flying Start @ Cornwall College - Camborne 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 45 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 45 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 4.946 for Flying Start @ Cornwall College - Camborne is calculated as follows: ( (510 Excellents x 5) + (24 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 536 Ratings = 4.946

  • 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 Flying Start @ Cornwall College - Camborne is based on 45 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 96 number of registered child places is 19.2, which has been reached with 45 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.
