The Review Score of 9.7 (9.667) out of 10 for Footsteps Stafford Nursery & Pre-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 13 Reviews in the last 24 months.
b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.8 out of 5 from 13 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 4.865 for Footsteps Stafford Nursery & Pre-School is calculated as follows: ( (135 Excellents x 5) + (19 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 155 Ratings = 4.865
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 4.802 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Footsteps Stafford Nursery & Pre-School is based on 13 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 81 number of registered child places is 16.2. 13 Positive Reviews ÷ 16.2 = 0.802
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.

Job Title: Nursery Manager
Joined: 2019
Hello, my name is Cath, I completed my level 3 qualification in 1999 and then went on to complete my Foundation Degree in Early Years in 2013. I have been a Nursery Manager since 2013 and I joined Footsteps in March 2019.
Here at Stafford, we are proud of our partnerships with parents, and the team work closely with our families to ensure the nursery is a home-from-home environment, as well as a learning environment that encourages the children to explore and become confident before their next adventure of school.
I am passionate about early years and while no two days are ever the same there is nothing better than seeing the children engaged in activities and having lots of fun!
