About us
Who we are
Beaconhouse began its journey in Lahore, Pakistan, in 1975 as the Les Anges Montessori Academy that catered to 19 children. In the years that followed, it grew into one of the largest private school networks in the world – the Beaconhouse School System.
While education remains at its very heart, the Beaconhouse Group of today has diversified its ambit beyond education to include technology, solar energy, hospitality, real estate, and more. It continues its work to create positive social impact through various nonprofit initiatives, doing so alongside its business ventures.
The network employs a multinational staff of over 18,000 from around the world, including the UK, USA, Ireland, Malaysia, Sri Lanka, South Africa, Belgium, Pakistan, Oman, Egypt, the Philippines, Thailand, and Canada, among others. With nearly 11,000 women employees, Beaconhouse is one of the largest private-sector employers of women in Pakistan.

History
The Beaconhouse group has over 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.
Beaconhouse aims to provide quality education of an international standard. We aim for excellence through quality management, quality training and quality teaching, bringing benefits to our students, the community and the wider world.
