About Francis Holland Sloane Square

This year, Francis Holland Sloane Square celebrates 145 years of shaping character, cultivating curiosity and opening doors. We are a school where every girl belongs, believes in herself, and becomes the young woman she hopes to be - inspired to dream fiercely and to move confidently into the world with purpose. Academic excellence is complemented by a strong sense of community and outstanding pastoral care, with our comprehensive wellbeing programme having won the School House Mind & Mental Health Champion Award 2025. Every girl learns how to develop her own business, competitive sport addresses the fear of failure and perfectionism, and exceptional arts departments offer unrivalled opportunities for performance. Coupled with our central London location which enables regular visits to museums, galleries and theatres, we provide an extraordinary educational experience.
