Admissions
St Stephen's Church of England Primary School has a distinctive Christian ethos which is at the heart of this school and provides an inclusive, caring and supportive environment where children learn and flourish in a setting shaped by Christian values.
We welcome applications from all 
members of the community and we ask all parents/carers to respect the Christian ethos of our school and its importance to our community.
The admissions policy can be viewed from the link at the bottom of this page, along with the application forms which outline the procedures at St Stephen’s Church of England Primary School for admissions to the main school, nursery and reception class.
Nursery
If your child is 3 or 4 years old and you live in Lambeth, you can apply for a part-time or full-time place for them in our Nursery.
You should apply directly to the school when your child reaches the age of 2 and a half. An application form must be completed and you should draw attention to any special reasons to support the application, for example if your child has medical needs.

Parents can apply for their statutory free 15 hours of childcare at St Stephen’s CE Children’s Centre.
Reception
You must apply for a Reception place at St Stephen's Church of England Primary School online via eadmission for September start.
Please see Lambeth Council Primary School Admissions for more information and instructions on how to apply.
Please also complete and return to us the supplementary form, so that we can collect all the information we need about your child. Children who attend the Nursery do not transfer automatically to the main school. If your child currently attends the Nursery you will be invited to a meeting in December to find out more about our school and information on the application process.
Completed forms should be sent to:
Lambeth School Admissions Team,
Lambeth Civic Centre 6 Brixton Hill London SW2 1EG
If your child is already in a Reception class in another school, you can apply for a place at St Stephen's Church of England Primary School directly through the school.
Years 1 to 6
We have places across a number of year groups.
Please come to visit our school and speak to our Admission Officer about school places. You will need to apply directly to the school and complete our application form. Please contact the school office on 020 7735 1023 or email us.
The school's mission and vision statement involved the whole community and recognises that 'everybody is made in the image of God' and there is a commitment to working collaboratively with families and the community.
