About Us

Beaconhouse Group

The Beaconhouse group has almost 315,000 fulltime students in eight countries and is possibly the largest school network of its kind in the world. Established in November 1975 as the Les Anges Montessori Academy with 19 toddlers, Beaconhouse has since grown into an international network of private schools, imparting distinctive and meaningful learning to students all the way from birth – through its partnership in Pakistan with Gymboree Play & Music – to post-graduation, through Concordia Colleges and the Beaconhouse National University.

Of these students, close to 111,200 study at the group’s flagship network, the Beaconhouse School System, in Pakistan as well as overseas, while the remaining are largely enrolled at The Educators, a parallel school network operated by the group.

The Beaconhouse of today is thus much more than just a stand-alone school. Through distinct and independent divisions across multiple destinations including the UK, Malaysia, Thailand, the Philippines, Oman, the UAE, Pakistan and Belgium, it caters to the education and training needs of a large and diverse group of individuals of varying ages, socioeconomic backgrounds, and nationalities, with its activities also extending beyond education in some countries.

An Overview of Beaconhouse International College (BIC Pakistan)

Beaconhouse International College is an initiative of Beaconhouse Group Pakistan, which is currently one of the largest education providers of the World with over 300,000 students studying in eight countries.

We are proud of the diversity of our learners and their interests, and we want to nurture these future engineers, medical professionals, artists, musicians, entrepreneurs and social workers by offering a diverse range of undergraduate programs that can help them meet their aspirations. This will be done through extensive course offerings in collaboration with some of the world’s best universities. Each campus will be fully resourced for its intended purpose, and exhaustive career counseling will ensure that students get the best guidance possible during their journey. The launch of Beaconhouse International College is another step towards diversifying the qualifications portfolio available to our learners.

Transnational Higher Education has established a strong reputation in Pakistan over the last decade, and has emerged as a preferred qualification pathway for students in the country. It allows students to get a foreign qualification without having to incur the considerable cost of travelling aboard. These programs are tremendously versatile, offering students the option of completing their entire education in Pakistan, or of going overseas to complete their final year of education.

In recent times, technology has broken down geographical boundaries, allowing ideas and knowledge to be shared around the world in a way that would have been inconceivable in the past. These changes can also be seen in academia, where we are becoming part of an academic world larger than our own institutions. Beaconhouse International College is based on the same ideology of providing borderless education to Pakistani students, thus integrating international perspectives into our institution and providing our students a global network for learning, discovery and engagement.

Message from BIC Pakistan’s Leadership

Chief Executive - Mr. Nassir Mahmud Kasuri

It is my honour and privilege to be associated with Beaconhouse International College (BIC). For many decades now, Beaconhouse has been at the forefront of K-12 teaching and learning. We are tremendously proud of the contributions our students have made to Pakistan and the wider world. BIC continues this commitment to exceptional quality education and extends it to higher education. We have combined our extensive national experience with some of the West’s leading institutions to bring unique transnational education programs to Pakistani students. This synthesis of experience should provide students with the springboard they need to be valuable contributors to the global economy in the 21st century. BIC has accelerated rapidly in both it’s programme offerings and locations in the last two years. Along with offering BTEC level 3-5 qualifications from Pearson, the institution now offers a variety of exceptional undergraduate and postgraduate programs in association with our international partners. Along with a range of humanities and business programs, we are proud to be the first institution in Pakistan to provide international mechanical, electrical, and civil engineering programs approved by the Higher Education Commission. What’s more, all programs are designed to help students develop real life skills as a core part of their educational journey. In order to do this, the institution has an in-house integrated incubation program focusing on core skills like design thinking, business development, and fundraising. It is our hope that this combination of practical training and exceptional theory will allow BIC students to stand out amongst their peers and carve out exceptional careers for themselves. I am glad you have ventured to our website, and hope that you will find our new vision for higher education interesting and compelling.

International Partnerships Unit

Beaconhouse group has always been a globally-focused or, having associations with some of the world’s leading academic institutions. These associations have allowed us to be at the forefront of education research, and to ensure that our students get the benefit of the most current teaching methodologies the world has to offer.

This benefit extends beyond our student body to our teachers. The Beaconhouse Teacher training program is known to be the most comprehensive and well developed training program in the country, and has evolved over the years to encompass the needs of the 21st century economy.

Our International Partnerships Unit has now been established to further diversify these relationships, and to extend them into the undergraduate sphere. This unit is tasked with providing students more diversified opportunities at the senior school level, as well as collaborating with top academic institutions in order to fulfil global demand for quality international higher education.

Our current goal is to develop innovative transnational education (TNE) partnerships with prestigious higher education institutes around the globe. Our TNE partnerships are not limited to Learning & teaching: all areas of the college can become involved in adding to the diversity of collaborative engagement; there are no limits to what can be achieved.
