>Read some of our testimonials and feedback from parents and family of our students, past and present.
I just wanted to write and state that my daughter is extremely happy since joining MEPA Academy recently, the communication, encouragement and inclusion has been so appreciated.
We were initially worried as a transition in school years, especially in Year 10 was nerve wracking, but we are confident that this is the right place for her to be given the best possible opportunities.
The initial test she undertook to ascertain her current levels and expected grades were fantastic, and despite it being only her second day, it reassured us that the Academy knows how she will learn best and encourage her to do well. This is more than we got in the whole time she was at her previous grammar school in the past 3.5 years.
As for the vocational opportunities, Gracie has ended each day on a high and eager to go again the next morning without any hesitation, a testament to the Academy's approach and resources available to them. As a Year 10 student with no tap experience, jazz or ballet, the teaching staff have truly accommodated her needs and slowed things down to support her learning but not to the detriment of her peers, as a result she is always keen and enthusiastic to catch up and put the effort in to be part of the team.
Highly recommend MEPA Academy and the confidence and enjoyment it has brought to Gracie in such a short since of time, which I have no doubt will only continue.
Just to note, Gracie got a grade 9 in her science test despite not being there and covering the first part of the content previously, and the tap teacher was surprised she’d not tapped before as said she’s good. She’s over the moon with the comments from the staff and encouragement; it’s just the confidence boost she needed.
Her only gripe is that her parents didn’t sign her up sooner!
