Welcome!
As Headteacher, I am proud and honoured to welcome you to St John Fisher Catholic Voluntary Academy, part of the Blessed Peter Snow Academy Trust.
As a Catholic secondary academy, we offer a unique education which places Christ at the centre of everything we do.
It is our mission as a Catholic academy to bear witness by putting Faith into action. Our CARE values – Commitment, Aspiration, Respect and Excellence form part of daily school life.
St John Fisher Catholic Voluntary Academy is a place where all are valued for who they are and where they see themselves going. In partnership with our families, we will guide our young people on a journey that is both spiritual and academic. Together we will shape them into young adults who are true to themselves and who acknowledge their individual worth as being made in the image and likeness of God.
“I have come that they may have life and have it to the full” John 10:10
This is an exciting time to be a part of our community as we are on a rapid journey of improvement and are introducing a range of exciting new opportunities for our students.
We very much look forward to what the future holds for our Academy and most importantly, our students.
