St John Fisher Catholic High School is a coeducational Roman Catholic secondary school and sixth form. It is located in Harrogate, North Yorkshire, England, and has developed steadily during the past 50 years and has around 1,450 pupils. The school is set in 22 acres (8.9 ha) on the south side of Harrogate and skirted by Hookstone Wood. The school buildings were first built in 1903 to hold a Catholic convent school under the Society of the Holy Child Jesus which moved from a building on Clarence Drive near Valley Gardens. The school was founded in 1958 on the site that is now the Area Education Office within the Harrogate High School campus. The school outgrew its facilities and moved to its current site on Hookstone Drive - using the buildings of the convent school although many nuns remained for some time to teach. The sisters of the Order of the Holy Child no longer teach at the school, but do maintain a convent over the road. Leo Gannon (Headmaster 1967-1988) oversaw the move of the school to Hookstone Drive and in 1973, along with fellow headmaster Ken Stott, created the St Aidan's and St John Fisher Associated Sixth Form.
