No, but slate and gneiss are both a type of metamorphic rock. Slate will also turn into Gneiss, eventually, if metamorphosing continues. The series is Shale (sedimentary) >> Slate (metamorphic) >> Phyllite >> Schist >> Gneiss
Shale is a common parent rock for both slate and gneiss. Slate forms from the metamorphism of fine-grained sedimentary rocks like shale, while gneiss forms from the metamorphism of various rock types including shale.

Shale can metamorphose into slate, which can metamorphose into phyllite, which can metamorphose into schist, which can metamorphose into gneiss.
Slate is a low-grade metamorphic rock characterized by fine-grained foliated structure. Phyllite is intermediate-grade metamorphic rock with a greater degree of crystallization and foliation than slate. Schist is a medium-grade metamorphic rock with visible mineral grains and strong foliation. Gneiss is a high-grade metamorphic rock with distinct banding of light and dark minerals and high crystallization.
Slate, gneiss, schist. Metamorphic rocks. Just the foliated ones.
Slate,schist,gneiss are the metamorphic rock formed from mudstone.
Slate is a fine-grained metamorphic rock that easily splits into thin layers, making it suitable for cutting into tiles. Gneiss, on the other hand, is a coarse-grained rock with a more irregular composition, which makes it harder to work with and less suitable for making tiles.
