'Lahore Grammar School, or LGS is a group of private based preparatory institutions based in the city of Lahore, Punjab, Pakistan. The system was established in 1979 at its 55 Main Gulberg campus. The institution provides education to boys and girls until A Levels. It has campuses throughout Pakistan including Faisalabad, Gujranwala, Gujrat, Islamabad, Karachi, Lahore, Multan, Peshawar, Quetta and Sialkot.

Students from each grade are sorted in 5 houses which are named after the fast flying birds. All houses participate in the activities and competitions of the school.

The Grammar School's co-curricular activities are popular among the youth of Lahore. They range from educational events to completely enjoyment programmes. Most of the branches have an environment society, which campaigns against the degreening of Lahore, and the concomitant decline in Lahore's air quality. Many branches have a community service program, proving students with opportunities to volunteer at organisations. 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.[cit Different clubs are arranged for the academic body, including debating societies, with teenagers participating in tournaments both locally and internationally.

Bonfires are an annual tradition for junior branches. Each branch has its own event and the students registered at that school attend with their family and friends. The event is an opportunity for students to take a brief break from schoolwork. It is also a chance for them and their parents to interact with teachers and school staff in an informal and social setting. Students and teachers often use this as an opportunity to discuss things that might be causing problems at school because everyone is in a good mood and willing to be more cooperative.
