Great nursery with a dedicated and caring staff. While management has seen some changes over the past few months, my daughter has truly enjoyed her time there. She's grown and developed significantly since joining. The nursery offers a wide range of engaging activities for the kids, like chicken hatching
and learning about the life cycle of a butterfly.

I am always happy with this nursery. My grandson has been very happy being dropped off since the first day he started which is the most important thing to us. The staff are very friendly and are always approachable.

I knew I wanted to bring my second child to West Thames College Nursery after having such an amazing support system from when I had my first child coming here. The nursery is always immaculate. The staff are very welcoming and hands-on. The management always keeps us up to date with any upcoming events,
or changes happening. My children have enjoyed their time here and their experience has been very positive.

I'm satisfied with this nursery. My daughter has learned a lot, she has been there for 2 years. I see great progress in development. She can speak basic simple phrases, she opened up to a group of children and this is a great credit to the entire staff.

Our child has had a wonderful time at West Thames College Nursery, so much so that we continued her here even though she was admitted to our chosen school nursery for 3+. She has loved the friendly staff and open and inviting setting and spaces from day 1. She has been well looked after and has grown
into a confident child. In the post-Covid world we have not been able to personally see and appreciate activities that our child enjoys but thanks to regular updates and feedback from the nursery, we are happy and satisfied as parents.

I feel that my child is looked after in a safe environment with all of her educational, social and emotional needs met. Her confidence and language skills have developed and she is happy in her nursery environment. The setting organises a variety of activities that are relevant to the time of year and
season. I can certainly say that my child enjoys her sessions here.

This is a great nursery with amazing staff. The only thing we would change is the drop off time and it would be great to have access to the setting all year round.

My daughter has been attending West Thames College Nursery for the past year and has been an exceptional choice for her. The nursery is well maintained and clean and the staff are incredibly caring and professional. They are well-trained and have genuine affection for the children. Communication is
excellent and they are always open to discussing my child's progress or any concerns I might have. The nursery provides nutritious meals and snacks. They offer a good mix of fruits, vegetables and balanced meals. My daughter has flourished there and I would highly recommend it.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.810)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.810) out of 10 for West Thames College Nursery is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 18 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 18 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 4.810 for West Thames College Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (179 Excellents x 5) + (33 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 216 Ratings = 4.81

  • 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 West Thames College Nursery is based on 18 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 80 number of registered child places is 16, which has been reached with 18 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.
