How to Apply
You must apply for a Reception place at St Alban & St Stephen directly with the local authority.
If you wish your child to be ranked under a faith criterion in case we receive more applications than places and must apply our over-subscription criteria (listed in our Admissions Policy), you will need to complete the Supplementary Information Form (SIF).
Return your application form and any supporting documentation to Mrs K. Heimann, St Alban & St Stephen Catholic Primary School & Nursery, Vanda Crescent, St Albans, AL15EX at St Alban & St Stephen Catholic Primary School or email to admin@ssas.herts.sch.uk, by the closing date.
