Francis Holland Sloane Square is an independent, selective, Church of England school for girls aged 11-18 with Sixth Form situated in Belgravia. There are currently over 600 pupils on roll. The school was named Sunday Times Independent Secondary School of the Year 2023 and was named as one of the top 40 independent schools in the UK in The Sunday Times’ Parent Power rankings for 2025. It was also named national winner of the School House Mind & Mental Health Champion Award 2025 and Finalist for both Independent School of the Year for Student Wellbeing 2025 and Muddy Stilettos Best Schools’ Passionate About Sport Award 2025.
Francis Holland Sloane Square was founded in 1881 by Reverend Canon Francis Holland. Three years later, the School moved to its current site on Graham Terrace, where it has since expanded to include the RIBA award-winning Centre for Creative Learning, a Centre for Creative Enterprise, and a transformational Sixth Form Centre, the Old School House, which increased the school site’s footprint by 15% in 2021 (909sqm). In September 2024, the Junior School relocated to a beautiful new site just a 15-minute walk away down the King’s Road and became Francis Holland Preparatory School. The school is governed by the Francis Holland Schools Trust along with its sister school Francis Holland Regent’s Park and Francis Holland Preparatory School.

Values and Vision
Francis Holland is rooted in its Christian ethos, but welcomes girls of all nationalities and faiths. The school’s vision is to provide an inspiring, holistic education in a community which empowers girls to become the leaders, thinkers, innovators, designers, entrepreneurs and game-changers of tomorrow. We offer an outstanding experience of learning and culture by putting creativity, intellectual curiosity, critical thinking and problem-solving at the heart of our approach to learning as well as encouraging entrepreneurship through our double national award-winning Creative Enterprise programme. Sixth Formers enjoy abundant leadership and entrepreneurship opportunities within the Old School House, a state-of-the-art learning environment which offers the perfect transition from school to university-style learning and the world of work beyond.
The school’s public exam results (71% of GCSE grades were A* (9-8) in 2025, while 72% of A Level results were A*-A in 2024), have been on an upward trajectory over the last decade and we are now rank amongst the top independent schools nationally. However, what really sets FHS apart is our exceptional pastoral care and strong sense of community. Girls are robust and resilient because they feel supported and confident in taking risks in order to reach their full potential. Infused with passion, purpose and a sense of joy, FHS is a school where children flourish, often achieving far more than they could ever have imagined.
