Headmistress’s Note Dear Parents, We come to the end of a fantastic first term, filled with colours, events and achievements. First of all I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for the support you have given both to your child and to the school. Academically, it has been an excellent term for all classes. At Beaconhouse, ‘we’, as a team, focus on developing the young minds to the best of their potential. Our endeavor is to get the best by challenging and supporting, both students as well as the teaching staff. Active participation and support of parents is the key factor for our success. We extend all possible support and partner with our parents for reshaping our young learners together. Learning will continue and we look forward to you for involvement in an even more exciting second term as well. Wish you all the best!

Experience the Enhanced Learning Environment
Executive Director, Mr. Nassir Kasuri, Vibrant Morning Assemblies
(ELE) @ BSS AECHS
Teachers use both traditional and education technology resources to create engaging and meaningful and interactive learning experiences for learners. These include the use of applications on tablet for formation of letters and to understand the sequence of alphabets and the use of Bee-bots to develop phonic awareness. Moreover, using Net-books to make posters and using the EYERis tool to provide an interactive white board experience are various examples of Interactive learning using ICT. Furthermore, the use of an IT Lab and Promethean board for primary classes to facilitate them in their learning is also available. Using a blend of all these resources teachers are able to create an environment where every learner gets to learn in his own unique way.
