Church of England Primary School · Stockwell, SW9
Your local first class school.
All day, every day.
One class in every year group, so every child is known by name — and a school day that runs from 7.30am to 6pm, so it works around yours.
We have places available now — in Reception and in most other year groups. Moving into the area, or thinking about a change? Call the office on 020 7274 7012 and we will tell you straight away what we have.
How to applyThree reasons families choose St Andrew's
We are a small school in the middle of Stockwell, and we have built the things around that which working families in this part of Lambeth actually need.
A school day that fits round yours
Breakfast Club from 7.30am, the school day from 8.55 to 3.30, after-school activities until 4.30 and our Cabin Club until 6pm. One of the longest school days in Lambeth, every day of the week — and you only use it when you need it.
See the full day →Small enough to know every child
One class in each year group, with a maximum of thirty in Reception. Every teacher knows every child, and most of the staff know their families too. That is a deliberate choice, and we intend to keep it.
Our vision and values →Recognised, independently, ten times over
Inclusion, the arts, wellbeing, work with more able children, religious education, our partnership with parents — all assessed and awarded by organisations outside the school. Not our opinion of ourselves.
See the awards →The day at St Andrew's
From breakfast to the end of your working day, in one place, with people who know your child.
Sport, art, music, clubs, structured and unstructured play — and quiet time too. You might need the early start twice a week, or the late pick-up once a term. It is there either way.

Judged good, and recently
Pupils enjoy their learning at St Andrew’s. The school’s six core values of faithfulness, joy, kindness, peace, love and perseverance are reflected in how pupils behave and the relationships they have with staff.

Come and see us
Nobody chooses a school from a website. Three ways to have a proper look, and you are welcome to do all three.
A school tour
Half an hour with a member of staff, during the school day, so you see the classrooms while the children are in them. Ask us anything.
See tour datesStay & Play
Bring your child and let them join in. The best way to see whether they settle here — and most of the time, they do not want to leave.
Book a sessionA 3D tour, from home
Walk through the whole school on your phone, at eleven o'clock at night, in your own time. Then come and see the real thing.
Start the 3D tourA word from our headteacher
At St Andrew's we welcome you to our happy, safe and Christian family, where we encourage everyone to do their very best.
Our vision is to inspire our children to be confident individuals, who are excited about learning and curious about the world they live in. It is our desire that every child who joins St Andrew's will achieve high academic standards and, as our school motto says, reach for the stars — and beyond.

Let the office know and we will make sure everything on our side is in order. One phone call or email is enough.
This school is for everyone
St Andrew's is a Church of England school, and we are an inclusive school that welcomes all learners regardless of race, gender, ethnicity or religion, stage of English learning, ability, special educational needs or impairments. We are proud of the values that underpin our Christian school, and we encourage applications from families of all faiths and of none.
We currently have places, so all applications are being accepted. Our full admissions policy, including the criteria that would apply if the school were oversubscribed, is available here.
Help, when you need it
Every family hits a patch where something is harder than usual. Nobody here will think less of you for asking, and most of what we can help with costs nothing at all.
Inclusion and SEND
If your child needs extra help, or you think they might, talk to us early. We will walk you through what happens next and who does what.
Inclusion at St Andrew's →Wellbeing
What we do in school to look after how children feel, and where to turn if things are hard at home too.
Wellbeing →Helping at home
Reading, spellings, times tables and the rest — practical things that make a difference, without turning your evening into a battle.
Help your child at home →The PTA
Discos, fairs, cake and fundraising. Come to one thing and see — there is no expectation to join a committee.
