  • Little Pioneers Nursery & Pre-School Finchfield, Wolverhampton
Ofsted Rated Outstanding (March 2020).

Co-op Childcare Finchfield has a large, busy and modern nursery, complete with an outstanding team who are all committed to meeting your child's development and care needs. Your child will also love being able to take their nursery teddy bears home for the weekend to go on exciting adventures.

The nursery is Green Eco Schools accredited, a programme that sees children make little changes that deliver big environmental differences. They are big on safety which is why ALL their staff are paediatric first aid trained. They use 5 Little Pioneers to help share their core values with children, from encouraging them to be independent to expressing their feelings.

They have a ParentZone app which keeps parents updated on how their little one is getting on at nursery with photos, assessments and even toilet training progress! They have a growing area for food which they also end up eating and have regular visits to a local care home.

Their local history comes to life at Finchfield as their children regularly go on trips to the park near the nursery and visit historic buildings there.

My son loves going to nursery, the environment is friendly and the staff engaging. I have found that I get good feedback on his progress and developmental support. He enjoys the food and every day he experiences a range of activities. Would highly recommend this nursery to anyone.

My daughter has been coming here since she was 18 months old and she has gained so much more confidence as a child. Her key workers when she started were amazing and her new ones are as well. My niece now attends and she is like a totally different child, has really come out of her shell.

Such a great team - everyone feels like a big family. The classes are structured with learning by play, children are well mannered, my daughter has been attending since she was 1year old. She is now 3 and her milestones are incredible. I would have no hesitation recommending the nursery and I would
most definitely use it again if the need arose.

We are so pleased we found this nursery for our little boy. The staff are professional, friendly and build great relationships with the kids. The range and use of resources are great and the outside space is fantastic (and made use of all the time). We have seen the staff genuinely celebrating with
children in their successes and lovingly supporting them when they are struggling. I can't recommend Finchfield nursery enough.

Our children have settled in really well at Finchfield Nursery and both really enjoy coming here. Their communication and understanding skills have developed well over the last 12 months which is in part due to the excellent staff. The room and activities also aid their development as there is plenty
to keep busy all day.

My daughter has been attending nursery here since she was 9 months old, she is now 2 and a half. Socially she is very good, she is very good with numbers, colours, names and has a general understanding of life very well. I believe that the nursery has helped so much with these skills as well as us (parents).
We
are so happy and proud for our Daughter to attend here she is well looked after and all the staff are fantastic. 10 out of 10.

My daughter is a very happy toddler who thoroughly enjoys her time at nursery. Recently, she has spent time with Valentine, the nursery dog, and we welcomed him home to spend (a very busy) weekend with us!
My daughter has also been potty training, encouraged by the excellent nursery staff, she is doing
very well. We know that we can always discuss important issues without judgement and have been very happy since the start if her care at Co-op nursery, Finchfield.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.984)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.984) out of 10 for Little Pioneers Nursery & Pre-School Finchfield is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 31 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 31 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 4.984 for Little Pioneers Nursery & Pre-School Finchfield is calculated as follows: ( (367 Excellents x 5) + (4 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 372 Ratings = 4.984

  • 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 Little Pioneers Nursery & Pre-School Finchfield is based on 31 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 114 number of registered child places is 22.8, which has been reached with 31 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.
