The governors of Carden Primary School are concerned about comments on the relative desirability of Patcham and Carden Schools several years ago made in the article on the views of Dr Anthony Seldon.

Time has moved on and things have changed. Carden Primary School, established in 2000, has become a school with a reputation for the quality of its teaching and learning with an excellent and committed teaching staff.

The school is led by a first-class headteacher, highly respected by the education authority, who gives support and advice to other schools.

Parents living in north Brighton are most fortunate in having a choice of good schools.

We welcome all parents looking for a good school to visit Carden Primary and see an example of the best of education.
