Welcome to Stebon School

To pupils, parents & carers,

We hope you see this site as an extension of your school; one that you can visit whenever you want for information or simply to show us off to your friends. To those of you we don’t yet know, we hope you‘ll find it worth your while to have a good look around & find out more about us!

Stebon is a happy two-form entry primary school serving a multicultural, though predominantly Bangladeshi community near Canary Wharf in the East End of London. Following recent refurbishments, our premises provide bright, spacious & comfortable learning spaces that our pupils love.

Our pupils are at the heart of everything we do. They are happy, friendly & well-behaved & they love learning. They achieve results in all subjects that meet or exceed the national average & do it all with a smile on their face. Unsurprisingly, their attendance is excellent.

Under new leadership since September 2012 & with the help of supportive parents & the most dedicated & committed staff team in London, Stebon School is going places; moving from strength to strength. We work hard together at doing the right things & we aim for the stars.

Have a browse, find out more & if we’ve whetted your appetite, come & visit us.

Academy Update

We are pleased to announce that on Wednesday 28th June we received confirmation from the DfE that all our paperwork was in order for us to convert to academy status on the 1st of July. As a result, Stebon and Bygrove Primaries have officially joined forces in forming a multi-academy trust, known as The LETTA Trust.

Our school will still be known as Stebon Primary School, the uniform will not change & we will be the same friendly, welcoming & committed staff team that you have grown to know and love.  On the face of it, pupils & parents should notice  no difference at all! A closer collaboration will simply mean that we are better able to provide the kind of outstanding education that pupils in our corner of Poplar deserve.

Thank you for all the honest, helpful feedback                                                             and ideas we received during this process. They                                                       have helped us to lay the foundations for a                                                         successful trust.

Visitor Quotes

Helen Swanson

Principal, Drove Primary School

You have an amazing school with fabulous children. The atmosphere was so focused on learning and this was clear in the outcomes we say everywhere we went.

It would be great to return and spend more time on areas such at assessment and teacher development.

Michael Murphy

Visits & Events Co-ordinator, Education & Society, The British Council

On behalf of the British Council, both here and in Colombia, may I take this opportunity to thank you, your staff and pupils for giving up your time to host the Colombia School Leadership delegation last week.

I know that they had an enjoyable and productive visit to the UK and found the discussions with you and your colleagues very stimulating.  From the initial feedback I’ve received, it seems that they had learnt a great deal in a short time and that their discussions had provided them with valuable information to consider when implementing new reforms.

It was a pleasure meeting you both and I hope that the British Council can work with your schools on similar types of visits again in the future.
