It felt like we had our lives back.

What our community says about Enemy of Boredom.

Before EoB the only place I felt safe was at home when I was gaming. School was a very negative and painful experience for me.

▸ PARENTS & CARERS

When home life changes too.

At school my child used to get himself into such a state of heightened anxiety that he would lash out at his peers and teachers. Things got worse until he developed deep depression. From day one at EoB, we could see the difference. He had almost 100% attendance and completed his digital media course with distinction. It felt like we had our lives back.

EoB Family

EoB Academy put an end to school refusal for our child. She’s on track to complete the Level 3 Creative Digital Media course and go to university. She wants to be a games designer. EoB rocks and we are indebted to it!

My son has come on leaps and bounds since joining. Previously a school refuser, he now looks forward to attending.

Parent

EoB Family

He is now enthusiastic, happy and has so much more self-belief. I never realised he was so talented in game design.

Parent

Watching my son’s confidence grow has been amazing for a child who would never leave the house. He now has the confidence to speak for himself.

▸ STUDENT VOICES

In their own words.

The only place I’ve fitted in.
People here listen to my ideas and give me the space to grow,
instead of making me feel left behind.

Student

EoB Family

The tools I used at EoB were advanced, way more professional than I thought which has been great for getting into the world of games design.

Student

I really like going to EoB. My tutor’s really supportive and he’s helping me understand why I get stuck sometimes.

Student

It’s a friendly environment where I felt comfortable to be. It’s helped me not only in game design, but also in my social skills.

Student

My EoB experience has been overwhelmingly positive and accommodating. My complex mental and physical needs have been met.

Student

I’m really able to develop my skills in both coding and socialisation, as the environment is very welcoming and lets you come out of your shell.

Our pupil always returns to school with nothing but positive feedback on his day spent at Enemy of Boredom. It does wonders for his self-esteem.
