The Program
 

The A-Level program at LGS 55 Main Gulberg began in 1995, the first students appearing in the examination in 1997.Since then, we have expanded in terms of subjects offered as well as student strength. Class sizes are kept limited; however, if a large number of students opt for a particular subject, the class is divided in sections, in order to keep a reasonable faculty-student ratio.

The program prides itself on combining academic rigor with a variety of activities geared towards the development of well-rounded personalities.

Choosing the programme that best suits you is important. There are many factors that you will want to consider. We hope that this admissions section will help you to make an informed decision.

Salient Features
 

Some features of our program that we felt you should know about, but may not think to ask, are briefly described below.

Because we are committed to intellectual growth beyond the limits of tthe A Level syllabus, a variety of clubs and activities dedicate themselves to that end. Examples of past initiatives include:

  • A series of one-week workshops by Dr. Tasneem Zehra Husain, introducing Physics   students to the world of string theory and other new developments in theoretical Physics

  • Establishing a Literary society , to read and discuss literary works of interest, and arrange   related activities, e.g. film viewing, attending the performance of Naseeruddin Shah's play, Ismat Apa ke Naam and Dastan Goi by Mahmood Danish and Anusha

  • Attendance at a lecture on the politics of globalization and development, by renowned   journalist Najma Sadeque

  • A course on Documentary Making by Mr. Steven John Moore

 
Because we believe there's more to education than academics, our students:
 
  • Run an environment society, that is currently running a campaign against the degreening of Lahore , and the concomitant decline in Lahore 's air quality

  • Run a community service program, proving students with opportunities to volunteer at a variety of organizations. Some of these include the Pakistan Society for the Rehabilitation of the Disabled, the Rising Sun Institute, Fatima Memorial Hospital, the Human Rights Commission of Pakistan (HRCP), and Shaukat Khanum Memorial Hospital.

  • Run debate clubs in Urdu and English. LGS teams have won awards at numerous tournaments on the national circuit.

  • Put on an annual play every year, in Punjabi, Urdu or English and also organize an Inter – School / Collegiate Drama Competition.

  • Compete at the International Schools Educational Olympiad in Karachi, bringing back awards in photography drama and group discussions.

  • Have gone on educational trips to various parts of Pakistan and to India.

  • College counseling for students interested in studying in the US, UK, Canada, Australia or Singapore.
