Welcome to Carncot School for Girls

From the Principal

Welcome to Carncot, an independent school designed for girls.

We believe the benefits that an education specifically tailored for how girls learn and grow far outweighs what the State school model offers.

The fact is that girls and boys have different educational requirements and evidence suggests that this is most significant in primary and intermediate schooling. Carncot creates an environment that fosters the confidence and ability to communicate effectively. It enhances interpersonal skills and creates a platform to reach true potential.

Respect, responsibility, honesty and caring are the cornerstones from which we deliver a broad and progressive curriculum, taught both in and outside the classroom. We provide a rich tapestry of cultures and experiences in an environment that combines learning with curiosity and a real sense of fun.

Our staff just love teaching and love the children. For more than a century, Carncot has motivated, inspired and prepared girls for a great future.

Our girls leave empowered to make a positive difference.
