## Recent parent reviews

- **5/5** — Wonderful Support and Facilities: Kickstart Academy has been a game-changer for my son. The staff are incredibly supportive and have helped him develop a love for learning. We're so grateful for the facilities and programs they offer, particularly the 'Kickstart Engage' program. We highly recommend Kickstart Academy. *(Sep 2023)*
- **4/5** — A Mixed Experience: We've had a bit of a mixed experience with Kickstart Academy. The staff have been great and the facilities are good, but we've sometimes struggled with communication and getting updates on our son's progress. Overall, we're grateful for the opportunities they've provided, but there's definitely room for improvement. *(Feb 2023)*
- **5/5** — Excellent Care and Guidance: My daughter attended Kickstart Academy a few years ago and we were blown away by the care and guidance she received. The staff are truly dedicated to helping students succeed, and the 'Kickstart Empower' program was a huge help in supporting her SEMH needs. *(Jun 2022)*
