My son started Reception at St John Fisher in September. I was so nervous sending him to school however all of the teachers involved made it a seamless transition for him. My son is a very happy boy going into school. The school has held workshops for parents which have been a great help, such as phonics and behavioural workshops. I enjoy the parent interaction with the school which I believe helps assisting your child’s learning, which the school are supportive of.

Our children adore St John Fisher School. From the teachers to the children, there is a positive and inclusive ethos, despite the challenges many schools face today. The teachers and support staff want nothing more than to see their children learn, grow and succeed. They are not only energetic and truly passionate about teaching, but they also connect with the children, fostering a positive learning environment. They take pride in celebrating children's achievements, big and small, and are committed to helping them overcome challenges or to stretch their capabilities. 
The school offers a world-class education with a diverse pupil population representing various faiths and cultures, while maintaining Catholic values of God and Love. This, and the school's emphasis on learning and extra-curricular activities, prepares the children for success in an ever-interconnected world in the future. We are impressed the school makes every effort to bring out the best in every child and treating then as individuals. This enriching educational experience with multiple perspectives is done in a safe environment, and wrapped in a culture of kindness, caring and sharing. Just take a look at X's, and other children, smiling faces!
We are so grateful that our children have the opportunity to attend the school over the years. They have grown so much ever since they joined the school. We've even noticed the positive school values carrying over at home, and at high school for X. X loves going to school every day.
All the staff and community make this school a 'heaven on earth' for learning. Well done!"

St John Fisher has given our boys a fantastic start to their school life. Now in Year 5 and 2, they both love school, have made fantastic friends and have developed into curious little learners and avid readers (something I never thought I’d be able to say!). It’s really important to us that our children are in an environment where they are happy and confident to be themselves. We knew that their learning would grow from there. St John Fisher is a safe, nurturing and positive place to be. Smiles going into and coming out of school…we couldn’t ask for more!

My children have all received an outstanding education at St John Fisher, and as a result have developed an immense love of learning and an ability to challenge themselves.  There is an opportunity for them to immerse themselves in a range of interests, from sports, to arts and music, and a wide range of roles within school life that teach them above and beyond the curriculum, such as Pupil Parliament, Oracy and Catholic Life Ambassadors. The school has an amazing community spirit and I am impressed with the level of pastoral care and the supportive environment that has helped them to build their confidence and characters. Their ability to explore their faith is nurtured and faith values are expressed in their daily school life.  The teaching staff are dedicated and passionate about teaching the children, and this shows in how much my children love their school life, and how they have been nurtured and respected throughout their time at St John Fisher.

This school is the most incredible institution. I send both my children here, one in year 5 the other has just begun reception. The staff know the children as individuals and nurture all their needs. My eldest is always delighted to go to school every day and said she feels understood by her teachers, she's thriving. My youngest has just begun his journey and he's learning the ropes he has settled in beautifully.

Parents are always kept in the loop and this school is exceptional in every way from the Head to every single teacher we have encountered. I just wish that they would also be a secondary school as well!

My children have always been extremely happy here through their whole school learning journey.

The staff have supported my children in all areas of their development, pastorally and through their education, giving them key skills to become independent learners.

My son has just started High School and he is ready and this is down to the progressive curriculum given to him at St John Fisher, alongside all the skills he needs to be able to flourish at high school.

My children have always felt safe here and their faith has always been at the centre in all they do.

Thank you to the staff and families who attend this school, who have supported and made my children who they are today.

My son has enjoyed coming to school from his very first day, 6 short weeks ago. It starts from his teachers giant smile each morning. He talks about his peers, he subjects and what he has learnt each day. In 6 weeks he is already learning to read and write, he has even taught us, his parents about planets! St John Fisher is a very special family and I proud to say my son goes to SJF. My son is thriving since starting school, I believe this is the love and support from his teachers. I can’t thank these teachers enough for all their support. On Mondays and Thursdays Jack is delighted to get his yellow polo shirt for PE and even though it’s an early start with Karate, Wednesday is now is his favourite day.
