Home>About Us>Head’s Welcome

Thank you for your interest in our school. For almost 150 years, Francis Holland has been educating girls to become confident, curious young women, committed to shaping the world around them.

Situated in the heart of London, our school provides an extraordinary experience of community, of learning, of culture – it is a school that is designed for girls, where girls feel known, known to others and to themselves, and are therefore freed to achieve extraordinary things. With a tangible sense of togetherness, our girls learn to take risks and to be fearless.

In the last decade, Francis Holland has become a byword for creativity, innovation and enterprise. Renowned for outstanding pastoral care and complemented by the dramatic upward trajectory of our academic performance, we are now the School for developing innovative problem-solvers, talented creatives and eager entrepreneurs. Social justice and proactive care in a fractured world stem from children learning to give and to serve with humility, courage and the determination to make a difference so they can be the game-changers that tomorrow needs.

In short, our academic and co-curricular programmes, flexing off a springboard of spiritual care and emotional wellbeing, are developing some of the most extraordinary young women of this generation and it is our privilege to be their guides on this journey.
