Crich Carr Church of England Primary and Nursery is a happy and nurturing village school located in Whatstandwell, near Matlock. We believe all children in our care should 'live life in all its fullness.' Our school values are rooted in the Christian ethos summed up by the following: 'Let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is heaven (Matthew 5;16). To achieve this aim we teach an exciting, rich and thought-provoking curriculum supplemented by a wide variety of enriching experiences. Staff and children consistently model our values of care; respect; resilience; commitment; and harmony. Our commitment to living these values is reflected in the 'outstanding' Ofsted rating (2025) for behaviour and attitudes. Our aim is to make the primary school experience as happy and fulfilling as possible! You are welcome to visit our school and find out more.
