Francis Holland Regent’s Park

Francis Holland Regent’s Park is a leading independent day school for girls aged 11–18, located in the heart of Marylebone, just two minutes from Regent’s Park.

Founded in 1878 by Canon Francis Holland, a visionary in education and philanthropy, the school forms part of the Francis Holland Schools Trust alongside its sister school in Sloane Square and the new Francis Holland Preparatory School.

Francis Holland Regent’s Park offers a holistic education that balances academic ambition with exceptional pastoral care. Pupils thrive in a warm, inclusive community built on the core values of compassion, knowledge, perseverance and spirit. Every girl is known, valued and celebrated for who she is—encouraged to aim high while staying grounded, empathetic and kind.

The school’s “schooling for life” ethos is embedded in its forward-thinking curriculum, which fosters creativity, critical thinking, collaboration and confidence. Through innovative teaching and wide-ranging co-curricular opportunities, pupils develop the skills to succeed in an ever-changing world, while being prepared for meaningful lives of purpose, leadership and contribution.

While deeply proud of its traditions and distinctive character, FHS continually evolves to meet the needs of modern learners. Its central London location offers rich opportunities through cultural, academic and professional partnerships, giving girls access to a wealth of resources and inspiration just beyond the school gates.

In 2022, the school opened Linhope House, its purpose-built Sixth Form Centre, increasing dedicated space by over 300%. Designed to support independent learning and intellectual exploration, the centre includes a Think Lab, seminar-style classrooms and collaborative zones that prepare pupils for the transition to university and beyond. Sixth Formers enjoy greater independence while remaining central to school life as mentors, leaders and role models.

Throughout their time at FHS, pupils build lasting friendships and a strong sense of belonging. The vibrant community spirit, shared ambition and supportive environment ensure that every girl has the opportunity to flourish—both academically and personally.

Francis Holland, Regent’s Park is more than a school; it is a dynamic and aspirational place where girls are empowered to become confident, compassionate and capable young women who go on to make a difference in the world.

Bursaries & Scholarships

Bursaries

Francis Holland is committed to providing a service to the local and wider community.

In particular, one of the Trust’s key objectives is to offer a top class education to children who would not otherwise be able to afford it. Our provision of bursary awards has always been a priority to the Trust and over the years we are delighted that so many girls have been able to benefit from a Francis Holland education, despite their financial circumstances.

Bursary awards are typically offered at Year 7 and on entry to the Sixth Form and are reviewed annually. Our decisions about the award of bursaries take account of a number of factors, including:

  • The ability of the girl and her fit with the school
  • The overall financial circumstances of the fee payers, both income and assets
  • The family circumstances of the applicant
  • The financial position of the Trust

Remission on a third of the fees is available to places offered to daughters of the clergy.
