The school is forward thinking and always looking for ways to develop partnerships with other Post 16 providers and seeking out opportunities to enhance the learning and progression of our pupils. Our 'Hub' is a base where pupils can seek information, advice and guidance and work independently. In addition to the Level 3 specialism, pupils can continue with their English and Maths to reach a C grade and all are expected to participate in a university progression module.

Carr Manor Community School is exactly that, a community. That means our core values are about building and maintaining a community within the school.

We achieve that through several major initiatives. Our House system, for example, ensures that every pupil and staff member is part of a team. Our Coaching programme consists of circle-based sessions that ensures every child is part of the community.

As pupils progress through our school they benefit from continuity and personalised learning. This also means that the values of a community that is both diverse and harmonious are extended to all pupils throughout their learning.

We are one of only a few ‘all-through’ schools in Leeds. Being an all-through school means our pupils benefit from an easier transition between year groups, shared expertise across the school, tailored teaching, shared resources, flexibility in the curriculum and the strong relationships that make our community what it is.

We also build lasting relationships with families who have children with us from the beginning of their education up to when they move on to higher education, apprenticeships, or employment.
