The Manchester Grammar School (MGS) is a 7–18 private day school for boys in Manchester, England which is the largest private day school for boys in the United Kingdom.
Founded in 1515 as a free grammar school next to Manchester Parish Church,[3][4] it moved in 1931 to its present site at Rusholme. In accordance with its founder's wishes, MGS remains a predominantly academic school and belongs to the Headmasters' and Headmistresses' Conference.
In the post-war period, MGS was a direct-grant grammar school. It chose to become an independent school in 1976 after the Labour government abolished the Direct Grant System.[5] Fees for 2023-2024 were £15,180 per annum.[6]
