The Lahore Grammar School was established in January 1979 at this campus. The nationalization of educational institutions in 1972 had led to an alarming decline in the standards of instruction and facilities being provided in most schools and colleges.  Intervention in the realm of education was therefore, critical to arrest this abysmal state of affairs.

In 1978 the Government announced that it would welcome initiatives in the educational sector.  Talking advantage of this, a group of women from varied professional backgrounds, including education, and with the shared objective of contributing in this field, decided to set up a girls’ school.

Today Lahore Grammar School provides education to both boys and girls till A’ Level.  It has extended its network to cater to the needs of the middle income group in its Landmark Schools.  The LGS College for women offers a degree programme in arts and sciences as well as a bachelors in computers.  LGS has branches in Islamabad, Karachi,Quetta,Peshawar, Multan, Faisalabad, Sialkot, Gujranwala, Gujrat, Wah Cantt and .  It offers quality education to the low income group through the Lahore Education Society School, entirely supported and funded by LGS.

The philosophy of this institution is an inclusive and tolerant one and one that appreciates diversity and stresses the importance of opinions based on rational and informed premises rather that on superstition, emotion and insufficient understanding of issues.  Emphasis is laid on the understanding of concepts and creating a culture of thinking in the classroom.  Education is seen as a broad and complex process of acquiring knowledge and understanding.

We have taken several initiatives in the field of education including the promotion of the performing arts that the Board of Lahore Grammar School felt were being neglected at great cost to our cultural traditions and a healthier social milieu.

In addition, the General Studies program was devised to  make students more aware of contemporary issues, both national and world wide, and their role not only in developing an understanding of these issues but prompting a desire to translate that knowledge into active commitment and take steps, where possible, to bring about positive change in their own environment.

LGS Lahore was the first English medium school to introduce the teaching of Punjabi. This is done at the middle level for a minimum of two years so that students develop an appreciation of their cultural roots and a pride in the rich traditions of literature and music of this province.  For those to whom it may not be a first language an introduction to a new one is not only useful, but educative.

A critical element of our program, other than a wide range of academic disciplines is music, dance, mime debate, drama, poetry recitation, there is community service where students are encouraged to share their skills and learn from the courage and resilience of those less fortunate than themselves.  The student body of LGS 55-Main Gulberg has been raising money through bake sales in school to give scholarships to students at the Pakistan Society for the Rehabilitation of the Disabled (PSRD) for the past 11 years.  They have also been going to help children who are being prepared for the Matric at this institute. 

In fact L.G.S. takes great pride in the fact that it is a School system that gives 55% of its earnings in scholarships, fee waivers and donations to education in various forms.

Our aim is to continue to maintain high standards in academics while not compromising our commitment to our motto to promote a wide range of activities that enrich not only the mind but the spirit, as well.
