History

St Stephen's dates back to 1876 when it was constructed at Turk's Lane (now Winchester Road) and opened under government inspection. A second building was built at Chertsey Road. The original building at Turk's Lane was later condemned by the Department of Education. [1] In 2011, because of a lack of spaces at both Orleans Infants School and St Stephen's, Richmond Council decided [2] to renovate both schools, converting them to primary schools. Works were completed by 2015.
