A super nursery for both our children. Hard to believe the eldest is graduating today! She has been happy, safe and nurtured here for the last 3 years. We are grateful for kind and conscientious care of all the staff.

My child has been with Highfield Day Nursery for three years now. In this time she has grown academically, socially and is very confident with her development ability. The nursery facilities are fantastic, safe and great fun. The staff are highly trained, competent, friendly and extremely attentive
to each and every child. There is a great mix of discipline, freedom and guidance for the children. The measure for us as parents is simply how my daughter talks about her wonderful days at nursery "school".

Highfield is a fantastic nursery. I can visibly see my son coming on leaps and bounds after a day at nursery. The staff are brilliant and provide great feedback on everything he has been up to during the day. The outdoor space is excellent. Food quality is of a very high standard. Highfield is also
very good at learning about culture and being respectful of other faiths.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.896)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.896) out of 10 for Highfield Day Nursery (Birmingham) 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 32 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 32 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 4.896 for Highfield Day Nursery (Birmingham) is calculated as follows: ( (346 Excellents x 5) + (34 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 383 Ratings = 4.896

  • 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 Highfield Day Nursery (Birmingham) is based on 32 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, which has been reached with 32 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.
