It was founded in 1989 by June Leung, Christine Ng and Richard Eng in Yuen Long. The school provides secondary tutorial classes for students sitting for the Hong Kong Diploma of Secondary Education, day-time secondary courses, pre-education courses and life-learning courses. The company is reported to be largest private supplementary secondary school education services provider in Hong Kong.[1] The BExcellent Group is the listed parent company of Beacon College.[2] It was created through a corporate restructuring of the Beacon Group on June 30, 2018. HistoryBeacon College was founded in 1989, and was then expanded to different regions in Hong Kong. In 2015, the college applied for their IPO but was rejected in 2016. In November 2017, Beacon applied for their IPO again under the name of BExcellent Group Holdings Ltd. In June 2016, it has become a listed company, marking the company the second of its kind to go public, after Modern Education.[3] IncidentsIn 2015, Lam Yat-yan (also known as YY Lam), Beacon's Chinese Language tutor, has received an open letter from opponent company Modern Education, inviting him to join the company after the contract with Beacon College has ended.[4] Modern stated that they will offer an annual income of HK$85 million, a four-year contract and additional financial assistance.[5] However, Lam has rejected the offer, saying that he have "maintained a good partnership with Beacon College".[6] In 2016, it was reported that English Language tutor Oscar Ma has involved in a sexual relationship with a student. A student who has applied for his lesson posted multiple screenshots and videos of their intimate conversations.[7] Later on, Beacon has suspended Ma.[8] In 2017, English Language tutor Patrick Chan Chi-yung (more commonly known as P Chan), was sued by his former employer Modern Education, where he has taught at for 16 years before he entered Beacon College. The lawsuit includes claims for an alleged breach of contract, a third party copyright infringement, and other financial costs, asking for a total of HK$36.3 million.[9] See also
