- Bright Scholar Education Holdings Limited (NYSE: BEDU) is a global premier education service provider that operates and manages a diverse portfolio of K-12 schools, kindergartens, and complementary education services; overseas study counseling; career counseling and internship programs; after-school programs including camps, study tours, and international contest training; language training institutions and summer schools; art academies; and educational technology platforms such as 3iGlobal Academy. The company delivers bilingual and international curricula including PYP, MYP, DP, IGCSE, A-Level, and AP programs across its network of over 100 kindergartens, schools, and training centers serving more than 58,000 students aged 3-26. Its operations span China (across 13 provinces and autonomous regions with 8 bilingual schools, 16 experimental schools, 84 kindergartens, English training centers, study abroad consultation centers, and study tour camps), the United Kingdom (6 K-12 schools, 3 language schools and summer schools), the United States (1 K-12 school, study abroad centers), Canada, Hong Kong, Singapore, and Vietnam, targeting primarily Chinese students seeking premium international education pathways to top universities worldwide. Founded in 1994 through the establishment of Guangdong Country Garden School in Foshan, Guangdong Province, China, by the Country Garden Group, the company is headquartered in Cambridge, United Kingdom. In recent years, Bright Scholar has undergone a strategic pivot following China's 2021 Double Reduction Policy, which restricted private tutoring, by disposing of non-compliant domestic K-9 operations and refocusing on international K-12 schools, overseas study services, and global recruitment while achieving operational efficiencies with a 30.7% reduction in SG&A expenses year-over-year in fiscal Q2 2025 and improved profitability from continuing operations; notable expansions include past acquisitions like CATS Colleges Holdings Limited and Bournemouth Collegiate School (2017-2019), and in October 2025, the company entered a definitive merger agreement with Excellence Education Investment Limited and its subsidiary to go private at $2.30 per ADS, with the transaction expected to close in 2025, resulting in delisting from the NYSE and termination of the ADS program.
