Let the school know you're thinking of applying — they can share their prerequisites and help you through the process.
It's best to ask — circumstances can change at any time.
Step 1: Initiate the application through BEK's admissions portal (Enquire Here). Prepare and upload the required documents: for Korean Nationals, a birth certificate or certificate of family relation, the most recent school report or transcripts (two years minimum), and a recommendation letter from the applicant's previous school, plus an immunisation record; for International Applicants, a copy of the passport and birth certificate, a visa, the most recent school report or transcripts (two years minimum), a recommendation letter from the previous school, and an immunisation record. Step 2: The campus admissions team reviews the application forms, previous school reports and entrance exam outcomes and invites eligible candidates to attend an on-site assessment. Step 3: Assessments are carefully tailored to the age of the candidates and full account is taken of educational experience and background. Step 4: The assessments are processed as quickly as possible, and the outcome is provided in writing within seven days. Step 5: After the written outcome, families proceed via the BEK enrollment process through the enrollment portal (Enquire Here); details about next steps are communicated in writing. Fees: Exact tuition figures are not published on the public pages; BEK publishes fee information by campus on the Tuition Fee page and you can request the latest fee schedule via the Enquire Here portal to obtain current amounts.
The BEK site does not publish a waitlist or pool system. The Admissions Procedure describes the application, assessment and outcome timeline but provides no information about waitlists or pools. To confirm whether a waitlist is used for a given campus or program, contact BEK admissions via the Enquire Here portal.
BEK does not publish scholarships on its site. There is no dedicated scholarships page, and the Tuition Fee page does not specify any scholarship options. If BEK offers scholarships, details are not publicly disclosed on BEK pages; inquiries about financial assistance should be directed through the Enquire Here admissions channel.
British Education Korea (BEK) is a group of five campuses delivering a British-style international education in Seoul, Bundang and Dongtan. BEK was established in 2010 and operates BEK Secondary in Seoul, BEK Prep, BEK Lodge, BEK Bundang and BEK Dongtan. The curriculum is built around the National Curriculum for England and Cambridge pathways, with Primary and Prep offerings incorporating Cambridge (Primary/Secondary) and IGCSE/A‑Levels in the secondary program. BEK runs an English-speaking environment across its campuses, with a dedicated bilingual approach in the Lodge and Bundang settings. Mandarin is taught as a core language from Nursery age, alongside English, Maths, Science and other subjects. The school emphasises inquiry-based learning, international-mindedness and host-country awareness, with a strong pastoral care framework, small class sizes, and active co-curricular life. Co-curriculars include the Duke of Edinburgh Award, Student Council and a music program, as well as regular sports fixtures and educational trips.
