At Carrick Knowe we try to live by our values; Kindness, Honesty, Respect and Responsibility
These values were formed in 2019 after consultation with our parents, staff, children and local community. We’ll be doing lots more work on these in class and during assemblies in the next year or so.
Carrick Knowe Primary School is situated to the west of Edinburgh. We are a non-denominational school with approximately 330 pupils as well as 120 children enrolled in the nursery.
The catchment high school for Carrick Knowe is Forrester High School. More information about Forrester High School can be found over on their website: http://forresterhighschool.org.uk/
Our school usually follows this timetable however there are sometimes changes at the beginning and end of terms. DUE TO THE CURRENT CORONAVIRUS PANDEMIC, WE ARE OPERATING USING SOFT-START AND SOFT-FINISH TIMES. FURTHER INFO IS AVAILABLE IN OUR COVID-19 PARENT GUIDE BY CLICKING HERE.
