"A Home from Home"

My child settled in so quickly at Carr Infant School. The staff are friendly and approachable, and the facilities are excellent. My child loves attending the after-school clubs, especially the maths club, which has really helped with their confidence.

"Supportive and Creative"

We moved to York and found Carr Infant School to be a wonderful community. The school's emphasis on creativity and communication really resonates with me. My child loves the Lego therapy club, which is a great way to develop their problem-solving skills.

"Mixed Feelings"

We moved out of the area, but my child still enjoys the friendships made at Carr Infant School. However, I found the communication between teachers and parents to be a bit inconsistent at times. Overall, I think the school is moving in the right direction.
