My daughter spends some time at Birdham Pre-School during their holiday club and I’m always so happy to leave her there for the day! She absolutely loves going and has great bonds with the staff. Their outdoor space is amazing with a wide range of things for the children to use. My daughter always comes
out telling me about the activities she’s done during the day and has the best time!

Birdham Preschool had been an amazing experience for my little girl. It’s a home-from-home. The staff are incredible and they’re always doing fun and creative learning activities.
I love that they do a lot of outside play there and learn through nature.

Fantastic nursery, lovely nurturing staff and a great setting my daughter is very happy here and I noticed such a difference in her as previously attended another nursery, she was like a different child within a week. I would highly recommend.

I would recommend Birdham Pre-School very highly. It is a wonderful charity-run setting in a beautiful location. They have an enclosed garden with a host of excellent play equipment and a forest hub for extra adventures. The activities and experiences they provide are amazing including cooking, gardening,
and woodwork. The children are outdoors playing in nature and exploring. We absolutely love it so much my third child now attends and the older two are always excited to come back to the fantastic holiday club.
The management team and staff communicate brilliantly, everything runs through an app, and they give daily updates and photos. I couldn't recommend Birdham highly enough.

Just a lovely little school. My son loves going there and has developed a great bunch of friends which has helped his confidence a lot. He does 4 days a week 9 to 3 which works very well. The staff are all lovely. Highly recommended

I can't rave enough about Birdham Preschool! Both of my kids have been part of this wonderful preschool, and it's been a game-changer for their growth.
My youngest practically grew up at this preschool since she was 1. She's made some solid friendships and genuinely looks forward to going every day.
The
staff is absolutely amazing. The kids adore them, and it's easy to see why. They're like family, giving each child the attention and care they need to thrive.
Cooking, gardening, woodwork - you name it, they've got it. It's like a mini adventure every day. Plus, it's not just about having fun; it's hands-on learning at its best.
But what really sets Birdham Preschool apart is how they mix learning and fun. They're all about making sure your kid is developing in every way possible socially, emotionally, and physically.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.664)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.664) out of 10 for Birdham Pre-School 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 7 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.7 out of 5 from 7 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 4.964 for Birdham Pre-School is calculated as follows: ( (80 Excellents x 5) + (3 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 83 Ratings = 4.964

  • 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 4.7 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Birdham Pre-School is based on 7 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 = 3.7

    • 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 32 number of registered child places is 6.4, which has been reached with 7 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.
