At Carclaze, our mission is simple yet powerful: Curious Minds, Kind Hearts, Bright Futures. These words capture our commitment to inspiring a love of learning, nurturing compassion, and equipping every child with the skills and confidence they need to succeed in life.
We are a large, two-form entry primary school set in a stunning location with sweeping views over St Austell Bay and the Gribben Daymark. Our modern site provides light, spacious classrooms and plenty of open space — a welcoming environment where children can explore, grow, and thrive.
Our school is built on four core values: Care, Communicate, Persevere, Sparkle, which underpin everything we do. They guide our teaching, shape our relationships, and help every child become the very best version of themselves.
Reading lies at the heart of our curriculum and our culture. We are passionate about developing a lifelong love of reading, and our vibrant library – situated in the heart space of our school – is a hub of curiosity, imagination, and discovery.
We hope this website gives you a sense of the warmth, creativity, and ambition that define our school community.
