Carr Manor High School

Carr Manor High School is one of the schools in Leeds that plays host to many young people arriving from other countries. The important thing when they arrive is to make them feel welcome

ELFM are working with Carr Manor to create a dvd resource that tells the new arrivals and their families what the school is all about. We are working with a group of young people at the school who themselves were new arrivals at Carr Manor in the last few years - who better to explain what it is like to start at a new school in a new country.

The project has been commissioned by Education Leeds and we are currently in production. We thought you might be interested in a little taster of the work…
