Orchard House is a highly respectable, family-owned nursery. Orchard House's greatest asset is its long-term team of staff who all ensure that the nursery teachers form deep bonds with the families and children attending the setting.

Orchard House's facilities have a home-from-home feel and will be going through a complete refurbishment throughout 2017.

The management believes strongly in whole brain development for young children and focus on providing a warm and welcoming environment for children to develop physical and mental learning as well as confidence and self-esteem.

The standard Ofsted curriculum is enhanced with weekly forest school sessions, cooking classes and outdoor trips.

Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

My son has attended this nursery for 2 years now. I would highly recommend it. The staff are very friendly, polite and professional. My son is always talking about how fun they are as well.
When he first started there he was very very shy, all the staff have helped build his confidence through interactive
play and learning.
I have never in the two years had any issues or concerns with the nursery but I'm sure if I did they would be dealt with straight away.
I have always felt that my son is safe and happy here, so much so my daughter (baby) will also be attending soon.
Great nursery!!!

Current Review Score: 9.2 (9.214)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.2 (9.214) out of 10 for Orchard House Nursery 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 5 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.3 out of 5 from 5 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 4.933 for Orchard House Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (56 Excellents x 5) + (4 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 60 Ratings = 4.933

  • 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 4.281 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Orchard House Nursery is based on 5 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 = 3.5

    • 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. 5 Positive Reviews ÷ 6.4 = 0.781

  • 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.
