- **5/5** — A great all-round school: We're really happy with our decision to send our child to Carclaze. The school's values of Care, Communicate, Persevere and Sparkle are great and we've seen them in action every day. The facilities are also fantastic and my child loves playing in the spacious playground. *(Nov 2022)*

- **4/5** — A good school with some areas for improvement: We had a positive experience at Carclaze, but there were some challenges along the way. The teachers were generally good, but we found the communication with the school could be better at times. We also felt that the school could do more to support children with special needs. *(Jun 2020)*
