British Overseas School (BOS) in Karachi was founded in 1958 as a non-profit institution for the children of expatriates. It relocated to purpose-built facilities in Karachi's Defence Housing Authority (DHA) and, in 2000, began admitting local families while maintaining its British ethos. By 2004 BOS introduced secondary education, becoming the only school in Karachi offering a British curriculum from pre-school to IGCSE, with the secondary school moving to new facilities in 2005 to support growth. BOS is accredited as a British Schools Overseas (BSO) school and is an Edexcel member delivering IGCSEs. English is the medium of instruction, and BOS offers modern foreign languages: Urdu, French and Mandarin Chinese (French is compulsory in some stages and IGCSE options exist). The campus is in Phase 7 of DHA, at 7/8, 14 Lane, Khayaban-e-Hilal. The school describes itself as small with a family feel and operates a Duke of Edinburgh Award, international trips, and Round Square membership that broadens opportunities beyond the classroom.
