Complete Minds Academy Anmeldelser 

My son has been with CMA for a year now, and I can only describe our experience as transformational. He had a tough secondary transition and suffered with school based anxiety. He is now happy, confident, and thriving in every way. The teachers are kind, fun, nurturing and their expertise is impressive. Although our journey started as a ‘fix’ to a situation that wasn’t working, we have now found something truly amazing and I feel proud that my son is part of something so progressive, innovative and unique. Thank you Murrough, Grainne and the team for all you do.

My daughter has only recently started Year 6 with Complete Minds Academy, but we have already been incredibly happy with our decision.
When asked why she now loves Maths, she simply said, “Because I’m allowed to make mistakes.” I think that says it all.
I particularly value the small class sizes, with only around seven or eight children in her class. This allows the teachers to get to know each child, notice when they need help and build genuine relationships with them. The atmosphere feels personal and relaxed, while lessons remain structured and focused. The children even call their teachers by their first names.
My daughter previously attended a highly regarded mainstream school and was doing well academically, but over the years I watched her enthusiasm for learning gradually disappear. We chose home education because we wanted to bring that enjoyment back, encourage independent thinking and give her more freedom to be curious and make mistakes.
It is still early days, but seeing her enjoy Maths and look forward to her lessons has been wonderful. I hope CMA can preserve these small classes and personal relationships as it grows, as they are a big part of what makes it work so well.

My son had been very unwell and hospitalised following a miserable 6 months of school taking its toll. I found CMA with the hope it would help him to rebuild his love of learning, re engage and begin to progress again whilst he recovered more fully when we came home. CMA have helped build his mojo back up, reinspired his belief in the future and given me my son back. Couldn't be more grateful. Thankyou to all the teachers and leaders are CMA, you are appreciated.

My daughter was really struggling to engage in learning at mainstream school due to anxiety and the difficulty getting an assessment for undiagnosed SEND. Registering her at Complete minds academy was the best thing we could have done, I only wish we had done it sooner. The tutors are all great at engaging the children and making learning accessable and enjoyable. We also made use of the one to one lessons to help our daughter to catch up on the ciriculum .
Our daughter has decided she now feels confident enough to enrol in a local college for a post 16 course. I have no doubt that this is due in great part to her time spent learning with Complete minds academy.

Really happy, 1 week in and our daughter is really enjoying her classes. She’s more relaxed and is learning modern and entrepreneurial skills which are missing from school curriculums. Murrough and Gráinne are super helpful and supportive. Thank you both

This was exactly what we need for our child. After a very stressful experience at school in year 8, she needed a safe and calm environment to be able to reset. Our experience at Complete Minds Academy has been very positive, our child has regained her confidence and was able to continue learning without the pressure and anxiety experienced in school.

Best decision we ever made! Our daughter is back to being herself again! She is so much happier. Absolutely loves her classes, teachers and is learning so much more than when she was at school! Wish we had done this years ago! Can’t do enough to help and support our child. Extremely supportive, kind and communication is superb! Amazing academy! Thank you for everything you do!

Life changing! All the stress of traditional school, gone instantly. All of the staff are welcoming and friendly. My child feels like he is heard, is enjoying learning again, always doing extra in his spare time. It’s such a huge difference to when he was in mainstream school, and while we were very nervous initially as it’s a huge decision to remove him from school, we now wish we had done it much sooner. All of his teachers are amazing, no more issues at school, happy child at home again. It’s honestly mind blowing how well it has gone. We are looking forward to his end of year report. Whenever we have had questions etc the school have always got back to us and provided us with answers same day and can’t help us enough with anything we require information wise. Really are more than happy with complete minds academy, I have been recommending to almost everyone I know. There is no going back now! As a family we love it :)

Where to start !… CMA have transformed lives in this household ! The absolute opposite of traditional school. Fantastic teaching, empathy, kindness, humour with personal support and feedback. My daughter missed much of last year and is now flourishing. It’s a joy to see. I could not recommend them more highly. If you’re sitting on the fence, go for it. You will not regret it. I wish I’d done it sooner. Thanks Murrough, Grainne and the rest of the teaching team 🙏

I am so impressed with complete minds academy, I had a very unhappy 14 year old who struggled with school and it was so hard as her parents to watch. It’s been 7 weeks now since she joined complete minds and it's changed all our lives, our daughter is so much happier she enjoys the lessons, the homework, which she always previously found a struggle, I cannot thank them enough and would encourage anyone with a child struggling with school to give this a try!

My daughter was finding it increasingly difficult to balance her elite-level sporting career alongside a chronic health condition within a mainstream school environment. Discovering Complete Minds Academy was a turning point for us.
The school offers a forward-thinking, future-focused curriculum that is genuinely engaging and exciting, and we have not looked back since.
She is now absolutely thriving and performing better than ever in her sport. As an academic myself, I have been particularly impressed by the quality of teaching and the thoughtful curriculum design.
I would wholeheartedly recommend Complete Minds Academy to any family considering home education for their child.

Our son started with CMA at the beginning of the year. He is like a different boy! He wasn’t getting on at all well in his old school. For my son to ask me to come and look at his work felt like such a huge step forwards. He likes all of his teachers and is enjoying the work (which is a better standard than he was previously doing). Excellent school!

We have been with CMA for a few weeks now and my son is loving it! He really looks forward to all of his lessons and his latest comments were "I wish I could work through half term, its so fun!" And "I would work all day if I could". I wasn't sure if online school would work but it really has proven to be exactly what we needed! His first couple of lessons were a bit nerve racking, but since then he has started getting friendly with his classmates he really looks forward to a bit of social time outside of me and his younger sister. I think its a perfect way to give him that feeljng of independence and the education he will need without throwing him into the 9-3, all or nothing school system. I think independent schools are the future and CMA is certainly pioneering that! Its great to have a passionate, entrepreneurial drive behind everything. Thanks Murrough! :)

Started this term, my son is loving CMA and finally getting his education back on track. Thank you CMA for everything you do.

After 12 months out of education and a slow recovery from burnout, diagnosis’s of neurodiversity we decided to try a bit of online learning. My daughter agreed but said no camera, she wouldn’t ask for help, she wasn’t sure etc. Murrough and Gráinne were so reassuring and walked us through how it would all work. Gráinne has replied to all my texts - we had a few technical problems and she sorted us out straight away! She has been brilliant, and so supportive.
Ava has completed two weeks of maths, English and science and has asked to increase her hours to include history and geography.
Ava is interacting with teachers and other children. The lessons are fun and engaging. She is totally engaged and enjoying it.
After a long and painful year the difference I have seen in Ava is unbelievable. She feels valued and capable and this has changed her whole demeanour. We have a child now who is smiling and chatting. She seems calm and at peace. My mum always pops in to check on her and she can’t believe the difference in her mood. Thankyou - we were desperate and you have brought some clarity.

The first week has come to and end for my son (year 9) and I can't begin to express how this school has changed my household . ( I know it's only a week) But I can see how much more relaxed my son is , he's enjoyed his lessons and is ready and willing to start each one . I've not had the bombardment of teachers negative red lights each and every day that used to cause such problems at home , my son actually said that at least he can't hear screaming or people making noises ( which is an issue for him ) so he can concentrate better . If you are thinking of using an alternative method of schooling then this school will be one of the best decisions you make .

Our son had just gone into year 10 and after lots of promises from his mainstream school for help which never happened we ended up with a very unhappy teen that was refusing.

We found complete minds and I cannot express the change in our son already. He actually enjoys his classes now, it gives him the freedom not to be stuck in a classroom but more importantly he has been made to feel that he can achieve whatever he wants to do in life with Murrough’s true enthusiasm and encouragement.

My son was so depressed at school. He didn't feel involved or encouraged by the school system. Just pressured for grades! So I searched on line for a better learning experience.

After meeting Murrough and seeing how the school works we decided to enrol our son on a trial period last term. He hasn't looked back and actually looks forward to his lessons with every teacher. I like that the cameras are on so all the class feel involved and they can make friends safely in class too.

The school encourages thinking out of the box and if the child has any worries, Murrough the director is there to support the child at every step. I only wish we had this option when we were young but am happy that my child has an alternative, fun learning experience now and is back to his happy self despite entering the teenage stage.

Also the good thing is we can travel and he can still attend this school. A bonus. Highly recommend!

Best decision!
After a recommendation I contacted Murrough at CMA. He was kind, honest and approachable.
Our daughter is only 1 week in but we can already see a huge change in her. She has told us the teachers are great and explain things in a way she understands.
Would 100% recommend to others.

We’ve been using Complete Minds for just half a term, and we’re already seeing such a difference. Our son, who hasn’t always had the best track record in school, is finally starting to understand things more clearly. He still needs a bit of a push now and then, but the online approach and the different way of teaching really seem to be working for him.

Our daughter absolutely loves it l, she’s fully engaged and looks forward to her sessions. It’s great to see both kids growing in confidence and understanding. Even though it’s early days, we can already see them going from strength to strength.

Speaking with Murrough was fantastic and I felt that the kids are at the heart of what they do, this is why we chose Minds.
