Best Schools in Gulberg, Lahore (2026): From FCC Primaries to Main Gulberg A Levels
We opened the schools' own websites on 10 November 2026 and kept only the Gulberg campuses they confirm, sorted by the years each one teaches and the exams it leads to.
Short answer
For girls who could stay with one school from Playgroup to A Level, Lahore Grammar School runs three Gulberg sites. TNS Beaconhouse Gulberg runs Early Years, then IB Primary and Middle Years, to Class 10. LACAS splits preschool to O Level across two co-educational Gulberg campuses, and The City School's Shalimar Campus in Gulberg III lists Matric and A Level from Class 3. Most pages we opened print no fees.
How we researched this: On 10 November 2026 we opened the official websites of Lahore Grammar School (its Gulberg site), Beaconhouse and TNS Beaconhouse branch pages, LACAS, The City School's Lahore directory and admissions page, Crescent Model Higher Secondary School, Bloomfield Hall School and Learning Alliance. A campus made the list only when its own school's site placed it in Gulberg; we grouped campuses by stage and exam route rather than ranking them, because no Gulberg record on SchoolNama has a verified parent review and we have no outcome data to compare. SchoolNama's Gulberg records were counted with a script the same day.
Choosing a school in Gulberg starts with knowing which campuses are really there. This guide does not pick a winner. It lists only the campuses whose own school websites, checked on 10 November 2026, put them in Gulberg, and it sorts them by what a family actually needs to know first: which years each building teaches, whether it is for girls, boys or both, and which exam it prepares for.
SchoolNama's Gulberg tag, which feeds the area page at /lahore/gulberg, held 97 campus records when we ran our count on 10 November 2026. Of those, 91 are map-import entries and the other six mirror Beaconhouse branch pages. None of them carries a fee, and only 21 carry a curriculum label: 20 say Matric and one, TNS Gulberg, says IB. The import is noisy. Going by the names alone, at least nine point to other neighbourhoods, among them Samanabad, Mozang, Sant Nagar, Chauburji and Civil Lines, and at least 15 look like universities, offices or training centres rather than schools, for example Fatima Jinnah Medical University, the Higher Education Commission, the Punjab Judicial Academy and a WASA training centre. Every record is in Lahore; we found no entries for Gulberg Greens in Islamabad or other cities' Gulbergs mixed in.
The tag also misses or misfiles some schools. Crescent Model Higher Secondary School is tagged Gulberg on SchoolNama, but its own homepage gives its boys campus and girls campus addresses in Shadman Colony, so it is not on this list. Beaconhouse's BCP Gulberg Campus on Main Boulevard sits under a different area tag, and we found no Gulberg-tagged record for the three Lahore Grammar School sites, the two LACAS campuses or The City School's Shalimar Campus described below. Two other names came up in our research but did not qualify: Bloomfield Hall School's site gives a contact address at 114-Gulberg Road beside Sherpao Bridge without saying which classes that site teaches, and Learning Alliance's website showed only a holding page when we opened it.
If you have a daughter and want her to stay with one school from her first year to A Level, start with Lahore Grammar School's Gulberg group. Its website says it covers only three schools, LGS 31 FCC, LGS 30 Main and LGS 55 Main, all in Gulberg. The 31 FCC primary school page mentions Playgroup, Nursery, Prep and Class 1. The 30 Main page describes a junior campus for young girls across the road from the senior school. At 55 Main, the senior school says students sit O Levels at the end of Year 11, and the school has offered A Levels there since 1995. LGS says 55 Main was its first branch, opened in 1979, and the 31 FCC page does not say whether boys are admitted, so ask.
Clearing the LGS 55 Main tests is not the same as getting in: places are limited, the admissions page warns, and some who pass are wait-listed. Applicants for Classes 9 to 11 sit extra tests in their elective subjects after English, Urdu and Mathematics. The page still showed test dates for the 2026-2027 year, all in 2026 (10 April, 8 May and 7 August), so check the site for the next cycle. The only fee figure on any school page cited in this guide is the LGS 55 Main registration fee bill for session 2026-2027: Rs 5,000, marked non-refundable. It is a registration charge, not tuition.
For an International Baccalaureate route, TNS Beaconhouse Gulberg is the campus to look at. The campus is on Hali Road in Gulberg III, per its Beaconhouse branch listing, which names three strands: Early Years, then IB Primary Years and IB Middle Years. The TNS website adds that its first campus opened in Gulberg in 2007, that the new Gulberg building opened for admissions in 2023, and that it teaches from Early Years to IBMYP, classes 6 to 10. Students then transfer to TNS Beaconhouse DHA for the IB Diploma, so that stage means a move out of Gulberg.
Beaconhouse runs several more Gulberg sites, each covering a narrower band. Three LMA branches list only Early Years and Primary Years programmes: 11-FCC on Syed Maratab Ali Road and 51-FCC on Zahoor Elahi Road, both in Gulberg IV, and 6-E in Gulberg III. Liberty Campus at 47-A / C-II Gulberg III lists Middle Years, Secondary School and Project Based Learning programmes, and BCP Liberty Campus at the same address lists a College Programme. A second BCP site, at 31 Main Boulevard, also lists a College Programme. None of these branch pages names an exam board, so ask each campus whether its senior classes sit Cambridge or another board.
LACAS is a co-educational option that runs from preschool to O Level inside Gulberg, though across two buildings. Its Gulberg Junior Campus, at 24 Zahoor Elahi Road in Block C of the FCC area, takes children from preschool through Grade 5. Its Gulberg Senior Campus, at 112 Gulberg II, Service Lane, near Sherpao Bridge, Iqbal Colony, covers Grade 6 to O Level and says it integrates AI into the curriculum, with students learning the basics of coding and robotics. The A Level campuses in LACAS's site menu are Johar Town and Burki, so a LACAS student continuing to A Level would leave Gulberg.
For the Matric route, the clearest official listing in Gulberg is The City School's Shalimar Campus at 32-E Industrial Area, Gurumangat Road, Gulberg III. The school's Lahore directory, which showed ten campuses for the city on 10 November 2026, gives Shalimar's span as Class 3 to A Level and Matric; it was the only entry in that list with a Gulberg address, so younger siblings would need a campus elsewhere. Government schools are harder to verify. SchoolNama's 20 Matric-tagged Gulberg records are all typed as public institutions, but some are degree colleges and one is a university, and we could not open an official page confirming a Gulberg government school's address or classes, so we have left them off.
On fees, beyond the LGS registration bill, we have no official Gulberg figure to give you. Not one other school page cited here printed a tuition or admission amount. At The City School, the fee structure slip is handed over only once registration is paid, its admissions page says; LACAS's campus pages carry a Fee Bills link but print no amounts. Ask every campus for its full charges in writing, including admission, security, annual and exam charges, before comparing. SchoolNama tracks what is known about charges across the city in /news/school-fees-in-lahore.
Transport is a gap in what schools publish. We searched the full text of every school page named in this guide and found no mention of a school bus or van service. The only related item was a traffic and drop-off protocols document listed on LGS 31 FCC's notice board. No Lahore van operator was on SchoolNama on 10 November 2026 either, which leaves the school office as your best lead on who serves your block.
SchoolNama holds no route or travel-time data for Gulberg, so we will not estimate journey times. The addresses do show three clusters. One is around Main Boulevard and Main Gulberg, where LGS 55 Main and 30 Main face each other and BCP has its 31 Main Boulevard site. A second is the FCC block: Beaconhouse places its 11-FCC and 51-FCC branches in Gulberg IV, and LGS 31 FCC and the LACAS junior campus on Zahoor Elahi Road also give FCC addresses. The third is Gulberg III, with TNS on Hali Road, Liberty and BCP Liberty at 47-A / C-II, LMA 6-E and The City School on Gurumangat Road, while the LACAS senior campus sits in Gulberg II near Sherpao Bridge. A split-campus school can mean two drop-offs for siblings, so try the drive at real school times.
Once you have narrowed it to two or three campuses, open their SchoolNama profiles, line them up with /compare, and check the Lahore admissions calendar at /news/school-admissions-in-lahore. All campus facts above trace to school websites read on 10 November 2026. Because class spans and test calendars shift between sessions, ring the office to reconfirm before any money changes hands.

Checklist before you decide
- ✓Confirm which building your child would attend each year; LGS, LACAS and Beaconhouse each split Gulberg stages across separate sites.
- ✓Ask where the final stage happens: TNS sends IB Diploma students to its DHA campus, and LACAS lists its A Level campuses outside Gulberg.
- ✓Ask LGS 31 FCC whether it admits boys, because its primary page does not say.
- ✓Beaconhouse branch pages are silent on exam boards, so put that question to the Liberty and BCP offices.
- ✓Get every charge in writing; apart from the LGS Rs 5,000 registration bill, no school page cited here gave a fee figure.
- ✓Ask whether the school runs vans or works with private operators, and what pickup time your street would get.
- ✓Check the next admission test dates on the school's own site; the LGS 55 Main dates still shown were for 2026.
- ✓Treat the 97 Gulberg records on SchoolNama as leads to check; several are colleges, offices or schools in other neighbourhoods.
Frequently asked questions
Which schools are actually in Gulberg, Lahore?
On 10 November 2026, official websites placed campuses of Lahore Grammar School (31 FCC, 30 Main and 55 Main), TNS Beaconhouse, several other Beaconhouse branches, LACAS and The City School's Shalimar Campus in Gulberg. Crescent Model Higher Secondary School is tagged Gulberg on SchoolNama, but its own site gives Shadman Colony addresses.
Which Gulberg schools offer O Levels?
LGS 55 Main says its students sit O Levels at the end of Year 11, and LACAS's Gulberg Senior Campus covers Grade 6 to O Level. Beaconhouse's Liberty Campus lists a Secondary School Programme but its branch page names no exam board, so ask the campus directly.
Is there a Matric school in Gulberg?
The City School's directory lists Matric, along with A Level, at its Shalimar Campus on Gurumangat Road in Gulberg III, starting from Class 3. SchoolNama also holds government school records labelled Matric, but we could not confirm their details on an official page, so check them with the education department or the school.
Is there an IB school in Gulberg?
Yes. TNS Beaconhouse Gulberg on Hali Road says it is authorized for the IB Middle Years Programme and teaches from Early Years through the IBMYP years, classes 6 to 10. Students move to TNS Beaconhouse DHA for the IB Diploma.
What do schools in Gulberg charge?
The only figure on a school page cited in this guide was LGS 55 Main's non-refundable registration fee of Rs 5,000 for session 2026-2027. No tuition figure appeared on any school page we opened, and SchoolNama's Gulberg records hold no fees, so ask each campus for a written fee list.
Do Gulberg schools offer transport?
We read each cited school page in full on 10 November 2026 and none described buses or vans; SchoolNama has no van operator for Lahore on file. Ask each school what it offers or recommends.
Which parts of Gulberg are these campuses in, and how long is the drive?
We do not have route data, so we do not quote times. The campuses here group around Main Boulevard and Main Gulberg, the FCC block, and Gulberg III, with one LACAS campus in Gulberg II near Sherpao Bridge. Making the trip once at your own drop-off hour will tell you more than any map.
