Lahore Grammar School (LGS) was established in January 1979 in Lahore by a group of women. The school now offers Matric, O- and A-Levels to both boys and girls.

LGS has branches in several cities of Pakistan including Multan, Faisalabad, Karachi and Islamabad. It offers education to the low-income group through the Lahore Education Society School, supported and funded by LGS.

Academic disciplines offered at LGS range from maths, physics, and chemistry to literature, music, dance, and debate. The school also stresses community service. The SETC (Special Education Teaching Centre) is a campaign launched by LGS (Johar Town) in order to encourage students to educate special people. In addition, the student body of LGS (55-Main Gulberg) has been raising money through bake sales to give scholarships to students at the Pakistan Society for the Rehabilitation of the Disabled (PSRD) for the past 11 years.

Students from LGS commonly go on to universities such as MIT, Harvard, McGill, and Oxford.

In 2006, students from LGS for Boys (Johar Town Branch) went to the University of Waterloo, Canada for the first time in the school's history.

[edit] Landmark Project

In April 1996, Lahore Grammar School started another network called the Landmark Project with the aim to provide quality education to low income groups. Landmark Project now operates several branches in Lahore and its network is increasing rapidly.
