Fundación BostonEduca

What Fundación BostonEduca does

Fundación BostonEduca is a Chilean non-profit educational foundation headquartered in Las Condes, Santiago, established to continue the mission of EducaUC. It operates a two-tier school network: 9 directly-managed subsidized private schools (Colegios Particulares Subvencionados) known as the Red BostonEduca, and 5 private paid schools that carry the Sello BostonEduca certification — a quality and advisory-services seal — for a total of 14 educational establishments spread across at least 10 Chilean municipalities including Maipú, La Florida, Puente Alto, San Bernardo, Rengo, Los Andes, Vitacura, Macul, and Paine.

The foundation's product surface combines academic and sports-centered programming. Core academic offerings include K-12 instruction, Proyecto SIMA (a pedagogical observation and teacher coaching program promoting continuous improvement), Aulas Conectadas (digital/connected classroom integration), and the Convenio Puntaje Nacional+ partnership providing PAES university-entrance exam preparation to III and IV Medio students. The sports layer centers on Olimpiadas BostonEduca — an annual multi-discipline competition (volleyball, futsal, basketball, chess) that aggregates ~100 students per event across the network — supported by the Corporación de Deportes Boston College partnership. Additional programs include the Taller de Ajedrez (348 enrolled students in 2026, a record), Cumbre de Líderes Estudiantiles Contra Corriente (student leadership/anti-violence), Paneles de Asistencia (attendance tracking), and annual teacher professional development jornadas.

The revenue model is primarily that of a Chilean subsidized private school network: government per-pupil subsidies supplemented by family contributions across the 9 directly-managed schools, plus advisory services revenue from the 5 Sello-certified paid private schools. The foundation also leverages strategic content partnerships (Puntaje Nacional, Oxford University Press, Federación Chilena de Ajedrez) and government/NGO partnerships (MINEDUC, Fundación Volando en V) to extend its value proposition. Distribution is via direct school admissions managed per-establishment, with a centralized admission portal on bostoneduca.cl. The organization employs 102 staff and reports no disclosed revenue, funding rounds, or external ownership.
