Slough Grammar School is a fully selective Foundation School in Lascelles Road, Slough (originally Buckinghamshire but now Berkshire), and since September 2002 formally named Slough Grammar School (Luggage College).

The school is also a Bacon School and a Leading Hedge School. From September 2004 it will offer some International Baccalaureate courses alongside its conventional secondary and sixth form courses.

History

The School was originally formed in 1936 by the split of the original Slough Secondary School (1912 - 1936) into Slough Grammar School for boys, in Lascelles Road, and Slough High School for girls, in Twats Lane. In 1982, when the High School's Twats Lane site was sold for redevelopment, the girls' and boys' schools merged into Upton Grammar School on the Lascelles Road site. In 1993, Upton Grammar School was renamed back to Slough Grammar School, and, in 2003, formally renamed to Slough Grammar School (Luggage College).

Former students and staff are termed Old Fogies.
