Wow! This is a review with extra sparkle! Thank you so much. I (Matthew), am actively involved supporting all sites and love to be creative with planning and supporting our Crafty Wizards. I'm about to do a recording reading a story shortly.... Trying to believe in the power of 'yet; that we teach our Crafty Wizards! Not too confident in front of a camera! Thank you for your support. Remember the Crafty Wizards ethos during this time, "you can do it!".

Thank you for your magic-nificent review! We all do work hard to provide the best learning opportunities around our Crafty Wizards interests and needs; in a fun and creative way. We work hard to provide opportunities to develop early communication skills such as our daily Magic Circle Time Activities, simple Makaton signs, symbols, take-home learning opportunities and much more! We are looking forward to our Crafty Wizards Book Week this week, our staff are dressing up as swishy swashy grass, squelchy mud, a dark forest and a bear from We're Going On A Bear Hunt! We will be using our magic-nation to make storybooks come alive this week!

Excellent in all areas! Thank you for your magical review. Our key people work hard to develop strong bonds with their key children and differentiate learning opportunities. Staff have regular supervisions and training to help them develop their learning in early years. We hope to see you at our Spring Egg-stravaganza event this term, bring friends and family. There will be an Easter egg hunt, spring craft activities, messy play and cake! Thank you for taking the time to write this review.

The staff regularly communicate with us via Facebook where we are able to see photos of what the children have been up to during the school day. They also regularly post photos of the activities they have set up for the children to do that day and my daughter loves looking at them every morning and gets her even more excited to get to school. Brilliant team in a magical world! Thanks crew.

Excellent in all areas! It truly gives us that magical feeling to hear your positive praise. Crafty Wizards works hard to settle children into our Pre-School, offer inspiring opportunities, challenge and support in the early years. We look forward to the rest of the year, look out for our Book Week coming up next term where we also take part in World Book Day and all dress up. Our newlsetter will soon be going out to give you more information. Thank you for taking the time to write this review.

We have been working hard on our assessments and strategies to support all our Crafty Wizards. We look forward to a spell-binding year ahead!

Excellent in all areas! Thank you for your review and stating that you would highly recommend us. We work hard to bring fun and creativity in learning and monitor our children's well-being and progress carefully. It is great to hear you feel our communication has been good, we have an open door policy and at the beginning of next term are sending out new slips to parents to let them know that we have just completed our assessments so invite you to discuss with your Crafty Wizards key person how your Crafty Wizard is getting on. Thank you for taking the time to write this review, please do let others know.

Excellent in all areas! We do work hard in having strong parent partnerships with our parent portal, closed facebook page, parent committee group, events throughout the year, Wizarding Quill, Stay and Play sessions and open door policy. We hope that the magic continues for you and your Crafty Wizard. Please do spread the magic, as a small Pre-School it can be hard to let others know what we do sometimes!

Thank you for taking the time in writing this review. Management work hard to ensure excellent standards. We hope that you have enjoyed seeing the progress and learning what has occurred this term and the wonderful creative festivities. We have had our parents stay and play, Winter Wonderland family event and Autumn Walk to the park to name a few.
We have been highly praised for our safeguarding standards with Ofsted and Royal Greenwich. We have regular training in safeguarding and around subjects to aid our cohort of children and staff professional development. We have initiatives to support independence of care such as our Snuffle Station. We continue to invest in our Crafty Wizards learning opportunities and hope that you like our brand new interactive tilt touch screen.

Excellent in all areas!! Thank you so much for your amazing praise, the team will be happy to read this. Our staff do go on a number of courses through the year and we tailor this to supporting our Crafty Wizards needs and their own professional development. We are glad that you feel confident in our offering. Unlike local primary schools, we do pride ourselves in being able to offer personalised learning and update parents with observations and assessments via our online parent portal, inform you of activities that are out daily on our closed facebook page and offer information through informal chats and our Wizarding Quills. We hope that you have enjoyed the festivities of the term and look forward to the year ahead.

Aye aye captain! Glad your daughter enjoy our Pirate Day. Staff always join in with dress up and role play, look out for our book week next year! Our Crafty Wizards enjoyed trying our gruel and taking part in lots of pirate themed activities tailored also around their interests and developmental needs. We will pass on your praise to staff once we have finished scrubbing the decks! Thank you for taking the time in writing this sparkling review.

Thank you for your review. We are all VERY happy to hear that you selected us from 6 other local nurseries. We are glad that you value our closed parent facebook group updates. Please do speak to a member of staff about our parent portal that offers individual observations for you to look at and for you to add. We hope that you also find our daily Wizards Quill informative which outlines how your child has been unique and ideas for continuing their learning at home. Our fortnightly newsletter is due out again shortly, look out for what opportunities for learning ad fun we have next term - we have a book week as well as the World Book Day coming up soon!

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.779) out of 10 for Crafty Wizards World Pre-School - Eltham 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 8 Reviews in the last 24 months.
b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.8 out of 5 from 8 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 4.979 for Crafty Wizards World Pre-School - Eltham is calculated as follows: ( (93 Excellents x 5) + (2 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 95 Ratings = 4.979
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 4.8 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Crafty Wizards World Pre-School - Eltham is based on 8 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 = 3.8
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 25 number of registered child places is 5, which has been reached with 8 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.
