It is a voluntary aided school administered by Birmingham City Council and the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Birmingham. The school is named after Saint John Wall, a 17th-century Franciscan friar who is honored as a martyr.[2]

St John Wall Catholic School offers GCSEs and BTECs as programmes of study for pupils, while students in the sixth form have the option to study from a range of A-levels and further BTECs. However the school is closing its sixth form provision from summer 2016, and will become an 11–16 school.[3]
