ST STEPHEN'S NAMED IN TOP 100 SCHOOLS IN THE COUNTRY BY THE TIMES NEWSPAPER
ST STEPHEN'S NAMED IN TOP 100 SCHOOLS IN THE COUNTRY BY THE TIMES NEWSPAPER
On the whole we are a modest bunch at St Stephen's C of E Primary School, but please forgive us if we blow our own trumpet just this once ... we are absolutely thrilled to have been named in the top 100 Primary Schools in the country. This is testament to the stupendous work of our lovely staff. We always say they are a bit special, but they have proved in this most difficult of years that they are marvellous - key workers beyond measure! Reaching such high standards is made possible by them and our wondrous children, fabulous governors, amazing FOSS PTA and the best parents and carers ever! End of boast ...

St. Stephen's Virtual Open Event - Monday, November 30th - 11am
St. Stephen's Virtual Open Event - Monday, November 30th - 11am
At this time of year, we usually warmly welcome parents through our doors, to show off our school, present our staff and proudly introduce our children. However, with things as they are, we will instead be holding a Virtual Open Event on Monday, November 30th.
We hope you will join us via the school website at 11am to experience our school virtually.
We'll be unveiling our short film so you can meet our staff, children and parents - this will also offer you the opportunity to look around the school - with a sneak peek into our lessons.
You will be encouraged to look at our curriculum overviews and will be able to learn more about how your children would spend their time here at St. Stephen's.
There will also be a ‘frequently asked questions’ section and we would like to invite prospective parents to use this contact form to get in touch with any questions you may have regarding our school and the admissions process.
We are sorry we can't extend the full St. Stephen's experience to you in person at this time, but we remain hopeful that we will be able to welcome you through our doors, at some point in the not too distant future.
