We have had two children in Pier Head for one plus years and couldn’t be happier with the experience. The staff are all engaging and responsive. The children love going to school each day, and we know they are in good hands. The location is also amazing, with the classroom filled with light and good
views of the Thames.

My daughter is well looked after at Pier Head, engages well with the staff and has made some lovely friends. She is extremely happy to attend the school. Her overall development has been outstanding since she joined. She has developed great linguistic skills as well as general day-to-day life skills.
Pier Head has a nice family feel and a personal touch. I would not hesitate to recommend it.

This is a very homely nursery with all the teachers showing lots of care and attention to the children. My daughter loves to go to nursery and is always happy to see her teachers. My daughter aways takes part in lots of activities throughout the day and loves to tell us all about her day.

My little one loved her time here, such a fantastic set up! All the teachers were amazing and really helped settle my daughter when it was time to leave her in the morning which gave me the confidence knowing that she was in safe hands.

My daughter attended Pier Head Prep Montessori School from the age of 2 years to 4 years.
Learning the Montessori ways and teaches me a few things herself.
Staff were all friendly and comforting, helping with settling in and separation issues.
School trips were good fun too. It’s a shame she had
to grow up.

Their teachers are a great encouragement and the academic program is brilliant.


I would highly recommend this school.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.916)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.916) out of 10 for The Pier Head Prep Montessori School 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 30 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 30 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 4.916 for The Pier Head Prep Montessori School is calculated as follows: ( (330 Excellents x 5) + (24 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 357 Ratings = 4.916

  • 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 The Pier Head Prep Montessori School is based on 30 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 30 number of registered child places is 6, which has been reached with 30 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.
