OPEN DAYS
Open days are usually held in the Autumn term - dates will be published on this page.
NURSERY ADMISSIONS
Applications for Nursery places are made via school by returning a Nursery Application form. Children are eligible to start nursery the term after their third birthday.
At St. Stephen's, we offer the following sessions for Nursery:
AM Nursery - 8.45am-11.45am
PM Nursery - 12.30pm - 3.30pm
All Day Nursery - 8.45am-3.30pm (Monday – Thursday) and 8.45am-11.45am on Fridays*
*This offer is only for those who are eligible for the government's 30 hours free childcare scheme. Children can stay until 3.30pm on Fridays at a charge of £25.00 per session. This covers the additional supervision costs incurred, that aren’t covered by the 30-hour offer.
SCHOOL ADMISSIONS
Admissions to schools are made via the Local Authority that the child resides in. Application schedules are in place for the following:
Reception Class - deadline is usually in the January prior to the September start.
Middle and High School - deadline is usually in the October prior to the September start.
Otherwise, an 'In Year Transfer' application will be required.
