The school capacity is 900 pupils yet they can't even handle 821. Even with the new extension they recently built, the school hallways are still small and cramped, making students feel unsafe when trying to walk down the hallways with barely any room because of everyone going in different directions, making it packed, especially for those who suffer with agoraphobia. The safeguard rules are barely updated. They prioritize good grades and attendance ov… *(Nov 2025)* - **1/5** — Homework: There is too much homework now we have to do 50 minutes a week for multiple assignments in total about 2 hours and 30 minutes, if this is not completed we get strict punishments, and students have no freedom at all. *(Sep 2025)* - **1/5** — Fishermore is bad: Your not allowed to go to the toilet for 45 min then when thay are open your not allowed to go. the food is bad the chicken is pink. You get gripped by teacher's thay lie then get other teacher's to say thay we're right and we was wrong *(Jun 2024)* - **1/5** — DON’T SEND YOUR KIDS HERE: Bullying is an absolute joke at that school. Kids threatening others with knives waiting after school to jump other pupils. What does school do?? Nothing. They get annoyed when I remove my child 5 minutes before end of school for her own safety. Many times I have kept her home to learn because of this. If she wasn’t close to finishing school I would be pulling her. I could write so much more but what’s the point they won’t change for a while *(Nov 2023)* - **5/5** — Best school !: best school in the world! *(Aug 2023)* - **5/5** — Best school ever!: I'm so happy we chose St John Fisher for our daughter. The staff are lovely and the school values really shine through in everything they do. We love the after-school clubs and the HAF program over the holidays - it's been a lifesaver! *(Jun 2023)* - **4/5** — Some mixed feelings: We've been quite happy with St John Fisher overall, but there have been a few issues with communication between teachers and parents. We love the Fisher Fest event and the school's commitment to inclusivity, but we feel there's more work to be done on parent engagement. *(Feb 2023)* - **5/5** — Excellent education and care: My son attended St John Fisher from Reception to Year 6 and we couldn't be happier with the education and care he received. The school's commitment to Catholic values and community is truly impressive. We've recommended it to all our friends! *(Dec 2022)* - **3/5** — Cannot use the bathroom: The headteacher is overbearing and rude. There are 5 toilet cubicles available for each entire population of each gender at the school and you are restricted from using them during lesson, even at break, the queue goes halfway around the school. *(Apr 2022)* - **3/5** — Ig it’s ok: I guess it’s ok- teachers are way too strict and chav’s can get away with about a tonne of makeup but when one girl puts on some lipbalm the world ends lmafo *(Mar 2021)* ## Other schools in Coventry - [St John Vianney Catholic Primary School](https://schoolbrowse.com/gb/coventry/st-john-vianney-catholic-primary-school-20940) — 4.8/5 (4 reviews) - [Cardinal Newman Catholic School](https://schoolbrowse.com/gb/coventry/cardinal-newman-catholic-school-20944) — 4.8/5 (4 reviews) - [Coundon Court](https://schoolbrowse.com/gb/coventry/coundon-court-13456) — 4.8/5 (4 reviews) - [St Bartholomew's Church of England Academy](https://schoolbrowse.com/gb/coventry/st-bartholomews-church-of-england-academy-14785) — 4.8/5 (4 reviews) - [Bishop Ullathorne Catholic School](https://schoolbrowse.com/gb/coventry/bishop-ullathorne-catholic-school-20943) — 4.8/5 (4 reviews) - [Heart of England School](https://schoolbrowse.com/gb/coventry/heart-of-england-school-12550) — 4.8/5 (4 reviews) --- Source: SchoolBrowse (https://schoolbrowse.com) — reviews and ratings are user-submitted by parents.
