Loughborough Grammar School is an independent boys’ day and boarding school in Loughborough, Leicestershire, in the English public school tradition. It was founded in 1495 with money left in the will of Thomas Burton, and has been a member of the Headmasters' and Headmistresses' Conference since 1962. It occupies approximately 110 acres of land, including a 39-acre main campus in central Loughborough and a 70-acre sports field in nearby Quorn.

It is one of four schools within the Loughborough Schools Foundation, along with Loughborough High School, Fairfield Preparatory School, and Loughborough Nursery.

The Schools Foundation are separate independent schools in their own right but share a board of governors. In line with the charitable intent of its founders, Loughborough Grammar School and Loughborough High School offer a number of means-tested bursaries, called School Assisted Places (SAPs), which cover up to 100% of fees.

The school was inspected by the Independent Schools Inspectorate in 2021, where it achieved a rating of 'excellent' in all categories.
