Introduction About LGS Lahore Grammar School Private Limited was established in January 1979. The nationalization of educational institutions in 1972 had led to an alarming decline in the standard of instruction and facilities provided in most schools and colleges. Interventions in the realm of education were thus critical to arrest this abysmal state of affairs. In 1978 the 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, with the mutual objective of contributing to this field, decided to set up a school for girls. A Private Limited Company, jointly owned by eight women was born. These eight partners comprise the Board of Directors of the Company. The Directors of Lahore Grammar School Private Limited are empowered to outline policies, allocate funds, declare dividends, appoint committees and vote on all vital issues. Lahore Grammar School Private Limited was established in January 1979. 3
Philosophy About LGS The curriculum at Lahore Grammar School is based on the Integrative Educational Model. Higher level of intelligence is the result of a dynamic interactive environment, which favours optimal development in students. Most traditional educational programmes focus on the cognitive areas of intellect and provide avenues only to enhance the growth of cognition in the curriculum. Research, however, indicates that intelligence can no longer be defined as only a rational process. It requires not just the use of the rational thinking function, but depends on the integration of the feeling emotional function, the sensing function, and the intuitive thinking function as well. While we can speak of and experience these functions separately, it is their integration that creates high levels of intelligence and optimal development of human potential. Emphasis is laid on the understanding of concepts, therefore research, independent work and interpersonal skills are strongly encouraged from an early age. The students learn the essential skills for success in today s world, such as critical thinking, problem solving, communication and collaboration. The school has also devised a project based General Studies Programme which enhances the students awareness of the world they live in. Issues like the environment, globalization, the role of women, international as well as regional conflicts and national integration are discussed and debated in class. In accordance with its educational philosophy, the school offers many extra-curricular activities to enrich student life. During the school year students go out on field trips, visit museums, art exhibitions, book fairs, libraries and cultural centres. Sports and art activities are organized regularly. At Lahore Grammar School, music, debates and drama are a part of the school programme. The school philosophy requires the administration to prepare students who are capable of accepting the challenges of a fast changing world. Hence, special emphasis is laid on developing 21st Century skills. The excellence of the core programme of the school is evident from the fact that students of the school regularly achieve World Distinctions in the O and examinations, thereby gaining entrance into centres of excellence in academia around the globe. To further enrich our existing academic programme in project based learning, the International Baccalaureate Primary Years Programme has also been introduced in the school curriculum from March 2014 from preschool to Grade VI. Our aim is to create a strong core of teaching professionals in keeping with our philosophy of education, where teachers realize that students need the support of nurturing adults who provide them the framework for 21st Century learning. 4
