About this school
St John Fisher Catholic High School is a Roman Catholic secondary academy in Peterborough. It teaches children aged 11 to 18.

Ofsted judgement
Confirmed by a short inspection, not a full one
Ofsted's most recent visit was a short inspection on 14 June 2023, where inspectors confirmed the school remains Good. The school's last full inspection took place before September 2019, so its area grades are not part of Ofsted's current published data. Older reports are on the school's Ofsted page.
This inspection took place when the school was registered as St John Fisher Catholic High School (URN 110907).
