My son has recently moved up to the foundation class and the improvement he has made within two weeks has been amazing.
Prior to moving up he was given extra support which really pushed him to achieve more.
Long way to go but a great start in the preschool.
Thank you to the staff who have never
given up on him.

Our son really thrives here. The staff are all very understanding that his needs are a bit of a challenge sometimes and we feel supported in learning how to work together to offer him extra support. He loves coming in and has a great time every day.

We absolutely love this nursery from the wonderful setting to all the lovely staff that works there. My son attended a different nursery prior to this one which took me forever to choose as I’m so fussy. I took him out when I was pregnant due to covid and hoped that this new nursery at Priors would
be really good so I could take him here instead. Fortunately for me, Busy Bees Priors Hall met all my expectations and more. My son loves nursery so much he sometimes gets cross on the days he doesn’t attend. The app is great with sending meal updates and photos of what they have been up to. He also speaks very highly of all the staff he deals with. They helped with potty training. Whenever I have had any worries or concerns, the manager is so lovely and puts me at ease. I just wish it had been around a bit sooner! I cannot wait for my daughter to start when I return to work as I am sure she will love it too and also progress as much as my son has.

My son who is just over two years has settled in well at the nursery. As a parent, I’m confident and assured that he is well looked after and have a fantastic time there. The staffs are nice and friendly and always try to give feedback on how the session went. The management had been very accommodating
on two occasions when I had to book extra sessions. My son’s eating habits have drastically improved since going to nursery. I couldn’t have asked for a better nursery. Thanks Busy Bees team for the fantastic work.

An exceptional childcare setting! All members of staff are professional, friendly and extremely engaging with the children and parents. The communication between families and staff is second to none. After having to move our daughter from another setting, the manager and her team have made us feel so
welcome and reassured us through every step of transition. Our daughter is so confident and chatty now and we can't thank you enough. Have already recommended to friends.

Our daughter absolutely adores all the staff at this nursery. She has developed so much in such a short space of time and is absolutely thriving with the help of her teachers. The nursery itself is so beautiful, there is so much for my little girl to do there and I know that when she is there, that
she’s having so much fun and that is so important to us as parents. The nursery is very clean and tidy and you can tell it’s well looked after.

My little boy loves going into nursery every week and settled so quickly considering it’s his first nursery. The staff were very welcoming from day one and the nursery is stunning. Not only from the outside but on the inside as well, it has so many resources for the children.

Beautiful, brand new nursery, not even 5 minutes walk from our home, so super convenient. The staff is very kind and welcoming.
Really amazing prices - with meals and nappies included (not many nurseries offers all that) it's without competition. Very lovely safe place and caring people within.
Even
once our little one wasn't well and I forgot to call them, they called me to check on us, which was very nice and unexpected.
I am very glad that Busy Bees opened close to us and can only recommend.

This is by far the most incredible nursery I have had the pleasure of sending my daughter too. The staff go above and beyond their roles and I already feel like I know them all so well. They are always so happy and friendly, day in day out. From day 1 I knew this was going to be the best start for my
daughter. The food that is prepared daily is fresh and so varied, and the idea of ordering cakes for birthdays is a great touch. The toys are amazing and the amount of activities that they provide have been great and she has only been there for a few months. My daughter has come on leaps and bounds since starting and every day she is learning something new and has made so many friends. Considering the current situation in the world, the whole team is doing an amazing job at keeping all the kids safe and also by not letting the pandemic affect the children or their learning needs.

Priors Hall Busy Bees was brilliant from the initial application, look round and the settling in of my daughter.
The facilities are great, the outside space is amazing for the children.
My daughter has never eaten so well, with very healthy and varied meal choices!
The app is also very good, it's
nice to get the notifications throughout the day of what she's eaten or a picture.
Staff are great, nothing is too much trouble, informative handovers and an array of activities.
Couldn't sing the nurseries praises any higher!

Being a first-time mum and having to go back to work I was looking for a nursery to look after my little boy. When I looked around Busy Bees all the staff during our visit made us feel so welcome and looked after. I felt reassured and confident that this was the nursery for us and so excited for my
son to come here.
All the staff are so friendly and they all seem to know my little boy which makes me feel even more at ease. Whilst I'm at work I can switch off and concentrate knowing he is so looked after in his Bombos room, having lots of yummy food and getting up to mischief and lots of activities. Thank you so much to the Bombos room and my son's key workers and everyone that makes his day great at Busy Bees.

Current Review Score: 8.1 (8.142)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.1 (8.142) out of 10 for Busy Bees Corby Priors Hall Park 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 2 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.2 out of 5 from 2 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 4.917 for Busy Bees Corby Priors Hall Park is calculated as follows: ( (22 Excellents x 5) + (2 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 24 Ratings = 4.917

  • 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 3.225 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Busy Bees Corby Priors Hall Park is based on 2 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 = 3.125

    • 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 100 number of registered child places is 20. 2 Positive Reviews ÷ 20 = 0.1

  • 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.
