Stories

We’re proud of our school, especially when our students and families say so.

From press articles and case studies to heartfelt emails sent to our teachers, here’s what our students and families say about life at MVA.

"We are so grateful that Minerva came along at just the right time for us. The quality of education was extremely high. The pastoral care and individual attention was excellent, as was the parental communication."

Mr & Mrs De Greff

MVA Parents, student now at Oxford University

“As a new MVA Parent all I can say is thank you. The honesty and integrity that we have been met with at MVA has been second to none.”

Siân Halls

MVA Parent

“After only a week I can see our son become more relaxed. Less masking going on during the day, and allowing his true self to just be. He is freely learning, and enjoying meeting new friends, in a highly inclusive environment. So glad we found MVA!”

Natasha Westbury

MVA Parent

"First of all, I would like to let you know how wonderful MVA has been for my daughter over the last term. Its really helped to rebuild her confidence and get her learning and socialising again. Its been a game changer for us as a family."
