Dear Parent/Carer
Welcome to our school handbook. I hope it provides you with helpful information about Carnegie Primary School, our values, and the broad general education we are proud to offer. At Carnegie, our aim is to ensure every child is supported and inspired to become a successful learner, confident individual, responsible citizen and effective contributor.
Our school values – Respect, Kindness and Ambition – are at the heart of everything we do. These values guide our relationships, shape our expectations, and underpin the positive, nurturing culture we strive to build with all members of our school community. We are committed to fostering an environment where every child feels valued, included, and encouraged to achieve their very best.
Positive and respectful relationships are central to our ethos. We work closely with parents, carers and partner agencies to ensure that each child experiences learning that is meaningful, engaging and appropriately challenging. Our vision is to create a culture of collaboration, mutual respect and high aspiration, supporting children to develop the skills and qualities they need for lifelong learning and future success.
We are dedicated to raising attainment and achievement across the school and nursery. Our whole community is united in a shared commitment to children’s rights, equity, and wellbeing. We embrace diversity and promote inclusion, recognising and celebrating the unique talents, strengths and contributions that every child brings.
Our Parent Council plays a vital role in the life and work of our school, representing the wider parent forum and supporting us to continually improve our practices and experiences for pupils.
It is a privilege to lead Carnegie Primary School and Nursery, and I look forward to building a strong partnership with you and your child/ren as we work together to create a school environment where every learner thrives.
Yours sincerely
Ms Ashley Brown
