Lahore Grammar School - Gulberg 3 Branch

Lahore Grammar School 55 Main was established in 1979. The nationalization of educational institutions had led to an alarming decline in the standards of instruction and facilities being provided in most schools and colleges. Interventions in the realm of education were consequently critical to arrest this abysmal state of affairs.In 1978 , the Pakistani Government announced that it would welcome initiatives in the educational sector. Taking 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.In 1979, therefore, Lahore Grammar School was established when 55 Main opened its door to a handful of students. We’ve come a long way since then!The school is affiliated with the Cambridge Board of International Examinations for the O and A Level programs. The grading system applied in the senior levels is in line with the specifications of the Board



OUR VISION

Our vision is a holistic and dynamic 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 creating a culture of thinking in the classroom and education is seen as a broad and complex process of acquiring both knowledge and understanding.We aspire to make our students aware of contemporary issues,both national and worldwide, and their personal 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 environment.We have taken several initiatives in the field of education in Pakistan, including the promotion of the performing arts which we felt were being neglected at great cost to our cultural tradition and a healthier social milieu. LGS also lays great emphasis on the teaching of regional languages so that our students develop an appreciation of their cultural roots and a pride in the rich traditions of literature and music of their province.We take great pride in the fact that community service is a critical element of our program, where our students are encouraged to share their skills and learn from the courage and resilience of those less fortunate than themselves.
