St John Plessington Catholic College

St John Plessington Catholic College St John Plessington Catholic College is a Voluntary Aided Catholic 11-18 Academy. We aspire not to have more but to be more.

We serve the population of the Wirral and are oversubscribed in all year groups. Our SJP community is a place where all are respected, celebrated and encouraged to fulfil their true potential. We plant seeds that one day will grow and water those seeds already planted, knowing that they hold future promise. We are a family who strive to be ‘Always faithful to Christ.’

A brilliant start for our new Year 7s!

This week, we’ve had the absolute pleasure of welcoming our new Year 7 pupils to SJP, and what a fantastic first few days it has been.

Starting secondary school is a big moment, but already our newest pupils are settling in, building friendships, finding their way around and becoming part of the SJP family. It has been wonderful to see their confidence growing each day, and to watch them begin to find their place within our school community.

At SJP, we want every young person to feel that they belong, that they are known, supported and valued, and that they have every opportunity to thrive.

We are so proud of how brilliantly Year 7 have started their journey with us, and we cannot wait to see all that they will achieve in the years ahead.

Choosing a secondary school is about more than looking around a building.
It is about the feeling you get when you walk through the doors, the pupils you meet, the staff you speak to and the atmosphere you experience.

At SJP, pupils join a community built on faith, ambition, care and opportunity.
Join us at our Open Evening to explore the school, meet our staff, learn more about our curriculum and discover what life at SJP could offer your child.
