Beacon Private School (BPS) is a school located in the Kingdom of Bahrain (Al Hidd) that was established in 2018. BPS offers education to students from Pre-Nursery to Grade 12. The school's mission is to create a welcoming, inclusive, and nurturing environment where every learner can thrive. We prioritize inquiry-based learning to develop successful, independent learners in an environment that promotes respect and responsibility. At BPS, all students receive equitable learning experiences that cater to their needs, interests, and learning styles, and are encouraged to embrace learning as a lifelong quest.
BPS takes pride in complying with the Laws and Standards of the Kingdom of Bahrain and meeting the affiliation requirements of International Agencies and Organizations, including Common Grounds Collaborative (CGC), New England Association of Schools and Colleges (NEASC), and the International Baccalaureate (IB). The CGC represents the school's teaching and learning 'DNA', and is the school's founding and principal educational partner. In May 2022, BPS was accredited by the NEASC, choosing the 'ACE Pathway' that focuses closely on teaching and learning. Furthermore, in November 2021, BPS was authorized as an IB World School for the Diploma Programme by the International Baccalaureate Organization (IB). The school believes that the shared philosophy among IB World Schools - a commitment to high-quality, challenging, international education - is essential for its learners. BPS strives to continue meeting these high standards and offering a top-quality education to its students.
Our dynamic curriculum, inspired by the Common Ground Collaborative framework, has been designed to meet the needs of learners up to grade 10. This approach focuses on fostering conceptual understanding, developing essential competencies, and nurturing character growth, allowing us to tailor education to the unique strengths and learning styles of each student. This approach fosters a love for learning and an appreciation for knowledge.
For our senior learners in grades 11 and 12, we offer the prestigious International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (IB DP), which provides a rigorous and well-rounded education that prepares students for higher education and beyond.
