GCSE and A level results
![]() | This article needs to be updated.(June 2015) |
Examination results have improved consistently at both GCSE and A level. Progress measures are especially strong and the changes to performance tables for 2016 emphasize this.
Inspection
A dip in performance saw the school placed in special measures from 2008 to 2010. Improvement saw the school judged Good in October 2013. The corresponding Diocesan Inspection judged it to be an outstanding Catholic school.
As of 2024, the school's most recent inspection by Ofsted was in 2023, confirming the judgement of Good.
Modernisation
When the school was given over fourteen million pounds to modernise their buildings and facilities it was felt that the school itself needed to be modernised also. The school name changed to 'St. John Fisher Catholic High School', the school timetable changed from six lessons a day to four 75-minute lessons, and a new uniform and a new school logo were added. The school opened on 25 February 2009 in their old site with new facilities, buildings and a new look.
Executive head teacher Sean Hayes was appointed as permanent head teacher.
