Having read a review about the new head, I have to say I disagree. I can’t comment about the claims made either but I’ve certainly not heard anything like this. I have children at the school. The new head in my opinion has gone above and beyond the previous one. He has increased standards, improved safeguarding and is much more focused on the children. It’s inevitable with any leadership change, not all incumbents will respond...

Review Moor Allerton Preparatory School
Having read the other review, I’d query the comments about the headmaster. I have children at the school and have to say I’m extremely impressed with the new head. Standards have increased, he’s prioritised safeguarding and is much more focused on the children. Typically whenever there’s a change in leadership, not all incumbent staff will respond well. That’s life. Bringing new talent in keeps things fresh and personally I don’t see anything wrong in setting...

Moor Allerton new head has had issues at a prior school due to bullying of staff. Since his appointment at MA we have seen many of the long standing members of staff leave, which has had a significant impact on teaching and moral in the school.

Unfortunately, I've been trying to get my refund for about 7 months. The situation remains the same. We were planning to study there but didn’t get a visa. So I guess they just decided to keep the money. Very unpleasant experience. Please, be careful!

How Do We Calculate Rankings?

Our school rankings are meticulously determined through a rigorous process:

  • Factor Selection: We choose relevant factors for the ranking, balancing statistical accuracy and practical relevance.
  • Data Evaluation: We assess data quality, ensuring it distinguishes schools and is accurate. Bayesian methods are used for user-generated data
  • Standardized Scores: Factors are converted into standardized scores (z-scores) for fair comparison among schools.
  • Weight Assignment: We assign weights to factors, preventing any single factor from overly influencing rankings. We consider user preferences and industry research.
  • Overall Score: Each school's overall score is calculated by applying weights to individual factor scores.
  • Data Completeness: Schools missing over 50% of data are excluded. Those with at least 50% data but lacking required factors get a grade but not a numerical ranking. Eligible schools have all factors and 500+ full-time undergraduates.
  • Ranking and Grades: Qualified schools are numerically ranked based on z-scores. Grades are assigned using the ordered z-scores, following a standard distribution.

This meticulous process ensures our rankings provide accurate and meaningful insights for your school choices.
