Full Day Session £85.60
A £100 non-refundable registration fee is required to secure a place (£0 for siblings). Exact days of attendance should
be confirmed no later than 6 weeks prior to the child’s start date. Any changes are subject to availability.
Due to the city centre location, there is no parking at this setting. There is an access road for drop off and collection only but this is at the drivers own risk. It is recommended that Monk Bar Car Park (Sat Nav Postcode YO31 7QR) is used, followed by a short walk through Monk Bar to the Nursery.
Little Green Rascals Day Nursery Minster Yard has a Review Score of 9.5 (9.451) out of 10, based on 23 reviews in the last 2 years. Over all time Little Green Rascals Day Nursery Minster Yard has 74 reviews.

The Review Score of 9.5 (9.451) out of 10 for Little Green Rascals Day Nursery Minster Yard is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.
a) The Average Rating is 4.6 out of 5 from 23 Reviews in the last 24 months.
b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.9 out of 5 from 20 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 4.589 for Little Green Rascals Day Nursery Minster Yard is calculated as follows: ( (206 Excellents x 5) + (38 Goods x 4) + (20 Satisfactorys x 3) + (9 Poors x 2) + (2 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 275 Ratings = 4.589
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 4.862 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Little Green Rascals Day Nursery Minster Yard is based on 20 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 116 number of registered child places is 23.2. 20 Positive Reviews ÷ 23.2 = 0.862
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.
