Hutchesons' Grammar School is a private, co-educational day school for pupils aged 3–18 in Glasgow, Scotland. It was founded as Hutchesons' Boys' Grammar School by George Hutcheson and Thomas Hutcheson in 1641, making it the 19th oldest school in Scotland.[1] Prospective pupils must sit an entrance test and interview to gain admission. As of 2024, the school has around 1,300 pupils across its Pre-school, Junior and Senior Schools and is governed by The Governors of Hutchesons' Educational Trust.[2] Its current Rector is Michael Martin.

Hutchesons' alumni includes the former First Minister of Scotland Humza Yousaf, several members of the House of Lords and the first female lawyer in the United Kingdom. Former pupils are known as Old Hutchesonians.
