We couldn't be happier with the care our son has received at The Study School and Nursery. The staff is incredibly professional and always attentive to the needs of the children, and they create such a warm and welcoming environment. The nursery manager and staff organize a lot of engaging activities
that keep the children excited and involved. Our son particularly loves the 'Show and Tell' time every week-it's become one of his favourite parts of the nursery! Additionally, there are plenty of outdoor activities, which he enjoys immensely. We're so grateful to have found such a fantastic place for our son and would highly recommend it to any parent!

My son attended The Study School for two years, and our experience was fantastic. The teachers are welcoming, always greeting the children with warm smiles and truly listening to their needs. Their caring and helpful nature has significantly contributed to my son's emotional and social growth. The nursery
offers a dynamic curriculum with new and engaging activities each day, which has been great for his development. One highlight is the forest school program, which my son absolutely loves. This unique program lets kids explore nature and enjoy outdoor activities that boost their physical and cognitive skills. Because of these positive experiences, we're excited to send our second child to The Study School as well. We're confident that our younger child will benefit just as much from the welcoming staff, diverse curriculum, and enriching programs. We highly recommend The Study School to any parent looking for a supportive and engaging nursery for their child.

Cannot thank The Study School enough for what they have done for my son. He has absolutely thrived at this nursery and has just been so happy to be there. The Nursery Manager and her team of staff are absolutely excellent. They go over and beyond for all the children. This is a very nurturing nursery
where the children will also progress very well academically. Highly recommend.

We moved our daughter to The Study and we are so happy that we made the move. She is thriving and so confident. She loves going to nursery and the staff are so nurturing and amazing! We get daily feedback of what they are doing and I feel safe in knowing they are being well looked after. My younger
daughter has also just started and she skips in. Her speech has improved since she has started and she is also thriving! Thank you! The nursery manager is very hands-on with the children and so nurturing!

We moved our son to The Study School & Nursery in September 2023 and we could not be happier with his progress. He is thriving in the environment - we are constantly surprised and delighted with the things he tells us he's learned. We are confident that he will start primary school with his best foot
forward as a result of the care and attention of The Study School's excellent staff. Best of all, he skips in every morning - it is clear that he is happy at the nursery and that is the most important thing to us, as parents.

My son has been attending the Study School nursery for over 2 years now and still loves going to nursery each and every day. From the moment we visited the nursery, we felt an immediate sense of warmth and comfort. It has been such a nurturing and supportive environment for our son throughout his time
here. He has become more confident in himself and his growth emotionally, physically and academically has been incredible. He has truly flourished here. The nursery manager is passionate, caring, very approachable and a true asset to the team. All the staff and teachers have been wonderful and make the nursery a happy place for the children, in which they don't realise how much they are learning. Forest school, PE, French and music are offered and highlights in my son's week. The fact that our younger son is also scheduled to join the nursery next year, is a testament to how pleased we are with the nursery. There is nowhere else we would choose for our children to be looked after.

Reply from The Study School and (ILG), Nursery Manager at The Study Nursery

From the moment we enrolled our son, we have been consistently impressed with the care and education provided by the dedicated staff. The nurturing staff creates a warm and welcoming environment where our son feels secure and loved. His social and emotional development has flourished under their guidance.


The educational programs are exceptional, fostering curiosity, creativity, and a love for learning. It's amazing to see our son's growth, both academically and socially. The teachers go above and beyond to make learning fun and engaging.


The communication with parents is superb. Regular updates, parent-teacher meetings, and special events allow us to stay involved in our child's progress and feel like part of the nursery family.


We cannot thank you enough for the amazing experience our son has had at your nursery. It has laid a strong foundation for his future. We highly recommend your nursery to any parent seeking the best start for their child.

This is simply a 'home away from home' type of place. Truly nurturing, educating, caring and fun place to be with. Both my daughter an son were lucky to be part of The Study family (my son still is and is settling so well). The nursery manager is very kind, hands-on and dedicated. The nursery team are
always motivated and happy. The grounds are fantastic, located on a quiet residential road with heaps of outdoor space and great facilities inside. The range of activities provided for the children is outstanding, including music lessons, sports run by a qualified PE teacher, yoga and many more. The academic benefits of my daughter being at The Study for 2 years were huge, Reception year was a piece of cake after all she was thought in the nursery. Thank you to the whole Team, we couldn't have made a better choice.

The nursery provides a nurturing and safe place for children to explore a range of educational activities and experiences. My 2 year old particularly enjoys forest school, music lessons and lots of crafting activities, as well as the opportunity to explore the outdoor area and to play freely (trikes,
sand pit, creative space). The days seem to have a nice balance of structure and freedom. The staff were patience and kind whilst he settled and he now welcomes the staff happily, and seems to really enjoy his time at the Study School.

My son has been going to The Study School since May of this year and as a two-year-old, he has developed so well thanks to the teacher's care and dedication. He has grown in confidence and I can see how caring and warm the teachers are for all of the little ones. They make learning fun, exciting and
inventive - e.g. They even went as far as setting up a pretend holiday, which my son very much enjoyed.

Our son has absolutely thrived at The Study School & Nursery due to the wonderful people who support him when he's there. He always comes home with a smile on his face and is excited to tell us about all the wonderful things he's been up to. We couldn't ask for a better environment for him to spend
his days. The entire staff at the nursery and school really engage and motivate the kids to learn and develop, within a fun and caring environment. We've been thoroughly impressed with the nursery since our son started there, especially with the communication with patients and depth of activities for the kids. They focus on different themes throughout the year to help the kids explore and grow. We would highly recommend The Study School & Nursery to others.

The Study Nursery are incredibly caring, supportive, and welcoming. My daughter has come on leaps and bounds in the two months she has been attending. There is a wonderful balance between group learning and free play and I have seen an enormous growth in my daughter's vocabulary, her awareness and interest
in the world around her, and her social skills. She runs in every morning happy and excited to see what is happening and leaves happy and delighted to talk about her day. I feel that every member of staff is working together to make it the most amazing place it can be and I couldn't be happier that this is where my daughter is whilst I am at work. It is a fabulous, joyful place and I have every confidence in them.

From the very first day that my girls came to the school and nursery, we felt safe, cared for and welcomed. The staff took care to learn all about our children and our family very thoroughly and quickly and the friendly and close nature of the school is amazing. Everyone knows your name from day 1 and
this helps the children settle so well. They are so could at understanding each and every child’s unique learning abilities and personality.


The day is fully structured and is a well-balanced mixture of learning, play, socialising and sports. They provide amazing food and pastoral care. The forest school and access to a wide range of extracurricular activities from nursery onwards is a bonus! They also take care to teach the children appropriate manners, social skills and values from nursery stages.

My son started to come to the nursery in January because English is not his first language. Therefore, he has great difficulties in communication and all the teachers have given him great help and patience. He learned a lot of new words in the nursery and we are very pleased with his progress.
The
manager even tried to use Google translate to communicate with him and understand his needs. This moved us a lot.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.980)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.980) out of 10 for The Study Nursery 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 17 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 17 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 4.980 for The Study Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (200 Excellents x 5) + (4 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 204 Ratings = 4.98

  • 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 The Study Nursery is based on 17 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 40 number of registered child places is 8, which has been reached with 17 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.
