The John Henry Newman School is a British Roman Catholic Secondary School located in Stevenage in the county of Hertfordshire. In its 2006 OFSTED inspection it was classed as an Outstanding school.
St Michael's College was established in Grove Road, Hitchin, Hertfordshire next to the site of a new Catholic Church in 1903 by Fr A Prével, from the Society of St Edmund. In 1925 The priests from the Order of Augustinians of the Assumption then assumed control of both the Hitchin Catholic Church and the College. St Michael's College was a Catholic Boys' School and the school housed a number of boarding pupils. In 1953 following a General Inspection, the College was granted temporary recognition as an independent grammar school and this was made permanent in 1958. The expansion of Stevenage New Town during the sixties led to the school being relocated there. It changed its name to St Michael's School, There was a subsequent amalgamation with St Angela's School for Girls and the school is now known as the John Henry Newman School.
