Weekly she has PE, library visits, ballet, campfire and outdoor play and a music class! The facilities and classes are fantastic but what makes
Our daughter needs encouragement to try new things. She has managed to take part in so much more than we ever imagined because of the motivation and help of the teachers. She comes back home worn out but really full of happiness and pleased with herself. It's clear from her learning, growth and the joy we see that we made the right decision in sending her to St George's.

As a family, we have experienced a few nurseries in Edinburgh and abroad and we feel St George's Nursery is one of the best we've encountered - it is a shame we'll have to remove him for his preschool year!

The staff are incredibly welcoming and although new to nursery
I feel that they work hard to ensure parents are engaged and well informed about their child's progress and they always have time for you as a parent, as and when you need it.

The grounds
The effort that is invested in and the structure that is in place around the transition from each stage of nursery to the next and ultimately to P1 could not be better.
Love the focus on child lead learning and the flexible approach which is adopted around listening to the children and taking classes down the roads the children want them to.
The quality of the staff in terms of academic qualifications, relevant experience and personalities is beyond impressive.

Ultimately, no matter where your child goes on to primary school, the time they will have spent at St G's nursery will give them a lot of happy memories and leave them well rounded and ready to start both P1 and the rest of their life.

The Review Score of 9.3 (9.310) out of 10 for St George's Nursery Edinburgh 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 7 Reviews in the last 24 months.
b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.4 out of 5 from 7 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 4.881 for St George's Nursery Edinburgh is calculated as follows: ( (75 Excellents x 5) + (8 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 84 Ratings = 4.881
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 4.429 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for St George's Nursery Edinburgh is based on 7 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 = 3.7
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 48 number of registered child places is 9.6. 7 Positive Reviews ÷ 9.6 = 0.729
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.
