There is limited outside space but they make the most of it and take regular trips out and about (which are clearly enjoyed). The current team are committed to communication, alerting us to any issues (or potential issues) and I want to recognise they are working hard to provide individualised learning opportunities within the context of overseeing a group of young children.

We used to get updates about staff changes but they can't do this anymore because they happen so often. I don't recognize half the staff that opens the door. Lately, we've had to wait at drop-off because there are not enough staff to look after all the kids, and they are all put together in a room regardless of age group and ratio.
They have a new app that adds no value, the previous one was fine and actually got updated with pictures and written updates from staff. Now we never know what's going on. Is this where the money is going? Because the fees have been put up 3 times in the last 12 months and the staff are underpaid.

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.700) out of 10 for Dicky Birds Day Nursery and Preschool Raynes Park, Pepys Road is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.
a) The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 17 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.
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 4.700 for Dicky Birds Day Nursery and Preschool Raynes Park, Pepys Road is calculated as follows: ( (156 Excellents x 5) + (36 Goods x 4) + (8 Satisfactorys x 3) + (3 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 203 Ratings = 4.7
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 Dicky Birds Day Nursery and Preschool Raynes Park, Pepys Road 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 63 number of registered child places is 12.6, 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.
