My daughter has absolutely loved her time at Lord Scudamore Nursery. Her confidence has come on leaps and bounds and we have been so pleased with the experiences and opportunities that have been offered to her. We especially enjoy being able to discuss her day around the dinner table after using the
app. We know she really values this too. Staff are friendly and warm. Nothing is too much. I couldn't recommend the nursery any more. Thank you to everyone for making her time so wonderful!

Lord Scudamore Academy Nursery is a wonderful and inviting space, the classrooms have some beautiful setups and toys. The outdoor space is great too, with sand and water play. The activities that they regularly do with my child are really good fun and engaging. Such as growing a bean when learning about
Jack and the Beanstalk. My child regularly comes out very happy and with lots to tell me about her day at school with the very friendly staff there. They are always singing and dancing at the end of the day, it's a wonderful place.

Many thanks for the glowing review. I will pass this on to staff as they will be totally thrilled.

My autistic daughter started in January, and the difference in just 6 months is amazing. Through speech therapy with lots of care and attention from her teachers, her speech, abilities and confidence have improved drastically. She has lots of fun and absolutely loves it there.

We are delighted that your daughter loves being at our school's nursery. Thank you so much for the review.

Teachers and staff are extremely friendly and always happy to help. My son has been attending since January this year and is excited to go every single day. All the staff were very supportive and helpful in toilet training my son who was still in nappies when he started, and is fully confident now.

Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

My daughter has always been met in the mornings with a smile and a good morning which has always made her feel comforted when she's usually quite shy. She adores all of the staff across the nursery, at the end of each day there she'll come home and endlessly talk to me about how much she loves each
one of them. My daughter is one of the clumsiest children I've met but after every accident tells me about how she was given a cuddle and told that everything's ok, this makes me feel completely at ease throughout the day knowing she's in safe hands. Overall, she has the best time and actually does a sleep countdown on when she's next in!

I couldn't have asked for a more welcoming, supportive, nurturing and caring environment for my child. Lord Scudamore Academy Nursery staff have provided a really positive start for my child as she makes the transition from nursery to Reception and I am entirely grateful. The use of the app is a brilliant
way to see what happens in the day capturing real moments of accomplishment on faces that I would never have seen without it. I appreciate the thoughtfulness of those that have taken these pictures and forwarded them for my amusement, my awareness of daily activities and the reassurance of contentment we hope our children have.


A heartfelt thank you for a wonderful start to school life.
Big shout out to the holiday club also, wonderful.
Thank you

My daughter started here in April and I was concerned at how she would settle. My daughter went to a different nursery prior to Lord Scudamore Academy Nursery and she never settled there. However she started at Scudamore and had a rough first few days but with the care and patience of the staff she
now absolutely loves it! She is forever telling me "It's So Fun" the best choice I ever made! The staff are all lovely and any concerns I have/had were put at ease. The setting is great well laid out with lots of different things to play with indoors and outdoors. My daughter's speech has developed so much already in the short time she has been here. All round great place for little ones!

I have no issues with sending my child. Feel that they are well looked after and safe. I feel there could be some improvements made with communication between parents and teachers, especially where incidents take place, but happy to approach the teachers directly.

Otherwise happy with the setting!

My son loves coming to nursery at Lord Scudamore Academy. His speech has improved with the help of on site speech therapy. He is thriving and very happy to come to nursery most days. Teachers are also very lovely and using Tapestry I get to see photos from his day too.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.936)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.936) out of 10 for Lord Scudamore Academy 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 12 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 12 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 4.936 for Lord Scudamore Academy Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (132 Excellents x 5) + (7 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 140 Ratings = 4.936

  • 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 Lord Scudamore Academy Nursery is based on 12 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 52 number of registered child places is 10.4, which has been reached with 12 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.
