Welcome to Loughborough Grammar School

At Loughborough Grammar School, our boys truly enjoy the best of both worlds.

They benefit from an education steeped in over 500 years of teaching boys, so we know how to bring out the best in them academically.

But it’s the inclusive, co-ed campus rich with opportunities and experiences to build their knowledge, nurture their talents, explore their potential and discover new interests that really sets them apart.

We set the bar high in terms of ambition, and our boys deliver year-after-year. They go on to achieve brilliant things. More importantly, they go on to be brilliant people.

Please browse our website to find out more about our School – hopefully you will find all the information you need. When you are ready, please do come and visit us. We would love to welcome you at a recruitment event or a private visit, so you can see for yourself that Loughborough Grammar is the school ‘where ambitious boys belong’.
