The school is a Voluntary Controlled day school for children from 3 – 11 years.  There were 126 children on roll in January 2010 and we plan to admit 22 children each year.  Our Nursery offers 40 part-time places.  There is a possibility of full-time Nursery places but strict criteria apply.

St Thomas’ is the oldest free school in Stockport.  The original Victorian 2 storey school, built in 1837, was replaced by the present, modern purpose built building in 1967.  The building consists of a dedicated office area, 5 classrooms, a fully-equipped computer suite, an SEN room/parents area, a quiet room for one-to-one and an octagonal hall which is used for assemblies/PE/dining room.  There is also a room that is used by the Local Authority Advisers for storage.  Externally to the front of the building there are pleasant lawned areas; to the rear of the school building there is a large hardcore surface for games activities, and a recently installed synthetic all-weather pitch, in addition there is a dedicated area for Foundation Stage outdoor play.  We also have a secure quad which has recently been developed to provide an enhanced outdoor learning area.
