Ofsted rating for Cam Nursery is Outstanding (November 2022)

Co-op Childcare Cam have a sensory garden filled with scented plants like lavender and mint, so their children learn about lots of different smells and textures through teacher-led activities or exploring on their own.

They are big on happy children, they have areas for growing food, regular visits to local care homes and focus on taking care of each other and the world. They are silver eco schools accredited, a programme that sees children lead the way in making little changes that have big environmental differences.

They have 5 Little Pioneers who help share their core values to children, from encouraging them to make their own decisions to expressing their feelings. They have an app for parents/carers, ParentZone, which keeps them updated on how their little ones are getting on at nursery, from photos of their day, meals eaten and even toilet training progress!

They are also big on safety which is why all their staff are paediatric first aid trained!

There are 4 home rooms within the nursery split into the following age groups: 0-2 year olds, 2-3 year olds, 3-5 year olds. The nursery has a car park to the front of the building for easy access. There is a garden to rear and side of the building. The garden includes a nature area, a growing area, 2 soft play areas and a dedicated baby garden.

My daughter is extremely happy at nursery and goes to nursery very happily twice a week. I feel she is cared for well by the staff and I feel the staff, more specifically her 2 key workers, know her very well. I feel there are excellent communication links with the nursery and the staff and feel happy
to share handover information.

Both of my children settled in very well in the ladybird room, my son started in November 2016 and we always had a record of everything. What had happened and what he had eaten. My daughter started in January 2018 she has also settled in well and we now get all updates to our phones so you know throughout
the day. All the staff are friendly and welcoming and easy to talk to

We have always been extremely happy with the care provided for our children at the nursery. They both are happy and well-fed on their days at nursery. The staff are always friendly, approachable and professional. My older child (now in pre-school) has learned so much - songs, rhymes, stories, games
etc...
My younger child has settled in well to the baby room.
We never worry about them during their days there and are reassured through the amount of feedback and information we receive from the nursery.

The Co-operative Childcare Dursley (Cam) Nursery is fabulous. The staff are highly trained and dedicated professionals. Every day that I leave my daughter with them I walk away with the confidence that she will be looked after to the highest level. They listen to any concerns and are pleased to hear
any handover information. Both of my girls have loved their time here.

My son has come on in leaps and bounds since attending The Co-operative Childcare Dursley (Cam) Nursey. He was attending another setting previously but something about it made it not 'the one' for us.
My son runs into The Co-operative Childcare Dursley (Cam) Nursery each day, and talks about the staff
at home and always comes out happy.
The manager and her team are nothing short of amazing and they all work extra hard.
I wouldn't hesitate to recommend the nursery to anyone and they more than deserve their 'outstanding' from OFSTED.

The care of my son at nursery has been outstanding since he began at 7 months old. He has thrived at the nursery and now at almost 4; in the Pre-School group he is coming home after every session telling us new things he has learnt. He is Especially loving letters and sounds that he is learning.

The reason I chose this nursery is due to the staff who are extremely passionate and caring of the children. My daughter is and always has been extremely happy when at theThe Co-operative Childcare Dursley (Cam) Nursery and, this in itself speaks volumes. Leaving your child each day can be very difficult
for us mums but when you know your child is safe, content and happy, this makes it so much easier! A big thank you for all their help and support over the years.

We used this nursery for 6 years. Wouldn't use any other nursery. Lovely staff in a fabulous setting! My children both loved this nursery between 2010 and 2016. All of the girls were loved by my daughters and also my niece.

My daughter loved The Co-operative Childcare Dursley (Cam) Nursery. The staff are all friendly, enthusiastic and welcoming. I have only moved her as they were not able to offer the hours I needed in the pre school room. The facilities are fantastic, especially having a soft play room.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.915)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.915) out of 10 for Co-op Childcare Cam 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 16 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 16 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 4.915 for Co-op Childcare Cam is calculated as follows: ( (173 Excellents x 5) + (14 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 188 Ratings = 4.915

  • 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 Co-op Childcare Cam is based on 16 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 45 number of registered child places is 9, which has been reached with 16 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.
