The nursery received an Outstanding status from Ofsted in January 2016.

Kids Planet Higher Broughton nursery opened in 2014 and provides care for babies through to pre-school age. The nursery is conveniently situated on the corner of Park Lane and Bury New Road in Higher Broughton, Salford and has large open plan rooms with direct access to secure outdoor play areas for each age group. The nursery also features a separate roof terrace playground for pre-school children.

Meals and snacks are freshly prepared and the nursery has two separate kitchens, one of which is a kosher kitchen with a separate kosher chef.

Can not recommend enough, I have had 3 children at this setting and on my last child now. The team/manager can't thank them enough for their hard work and support over the years. Amazing learning provided and care is the best I have seen, the community recommended the nursery and forever grateful.

I have my child at the nursery and also my niece. Both really enjoy going and the team is so good and I fully trust them to do the best for my child. Over Covid and all 3 lockdowns the nursery/company have done a sterling job and provided top standards of care but also positive with everything at this
scary time. Great team and amazing manager. Thank you all.

A lovely nursery, very spacious rooms and outdoor areas. My first child came to this nursery in 2015 and started in the baby room and moved in to all the age groups and graduated in preschool. The whole staff team are very good and this shines from the way they are with the children and parents. My
second child started in 2020 and again, is having a great experience and I am so happy with the care at the setting. The management team and the company are so lovely, whenever I need anything or have a query it is sorted straight away. Originally this nursery was recommended by my friend and now I would recommend to all. I want to say a big thank you. During this pandemic, the nursery staff have not been recognised enough but they are amazing and thank you to Kids Planet Day Nurseries - Higher Broughton.

Amazing team. My child enjoyed their time at the nursery and didn't want to go to school. Management is so kind and supportive to all, finds time, and this is the main reason I joined Kids Planet Higher Broughton. Thank you to the team.

A great nursery for kids, a safe environment and a loving staff team. Parentzone app is so good to keep track of your child development and communicate to staff during the day. The manager is so lovely and of great support (a great listener to a very over the top parent like me). I have had piece of
mind over this last year to date as it has been managed so well.

Kids Planet Broughton is a very personal and warm nursery. All of the staff know my daughter and us as parents. They have been very supportive of the transition from dairy to a non-dairy diet, as my daughter had developed an intolerance. It is a very happy and stimulating environment. My daughter loves
coming and is starting to identify the staff by their names.

Current Review Score: 9.2 (9.238)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.2 (9.238) out of 10 for Kids Planet Higher Broughton 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 11 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.3 out of 5 from 11 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 4.894 for Kids Planet Higher Broughton is calculated as follows: ( (118 Excellents x 5) + (14 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 132 Ratings = 4.894

  • 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 4.344 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Kids Planet Higher Broughton is based on 11 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 160 number of registered child places is 32. 11 Positive Reviews ÷ 32 = 0.344

  • 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.
