Application fees
- No separate application or registration fee is published in the school's publicly distributed admissions and fee notices for the current intake periods.
Tuition fees (by programme and year group) — per term / per semester
- Domestic (mainland curriculum / 文化课程班 / 常规班): approximately RMB 16,000 per semester (charged per semester for each student). Annual charge equals two semesters.
- Bilingual / small-class international pathway (双语融合部 / 初中小班): RMB 44,000 per semester for the small-class junior secondary cohort (tuition charged per semester). Annual charge equals two semesters.
- International college / international programmes (IGCSE, A-Level, HKDSE / 国际公学 & 高中国际项目): programme fees are higher and vary by pathway and year; published figures for international-track high-school programmes have included amounts in the tens of thousands of RMB per semester (examples published include RMB 44,000–89,000 per semester for different international streams and cohorts). Parents should expect international-track tuition to be substantially above the domestic-track level and to be charged per semester.
- Arts / specialised experimental classes (e.g., art / sports / music experimental classes): listed higher tuition levels for specialist streams (examples published include specialist-class tuition in the range of RMB 25,000 per semester for some art-specialist cohorts). Specialist-course tuition is charged per semester.
Boarding and boarding-related charges
- Standard boarding (main campus domestic / bilingual cohorts): published boarding fee examples show RMB 2,000 per semester. Boarding is typically charged per semester.
- International-track boarding: published examples for international programmes have shown higher boarding fees (examples include amounts around RMB 5,000 per semester for international cohorts). Bedding and one‑time dorm setup charges are sometimes collected separately.
Other compulsory and one‑time fees
- Uniform: a standard uniform set is listed at around RMB 1,100 per student for a complete set (one‑time charge).
- Bedding / dormitory starter set: examples show a one‑time bedding fee around RMB 400 per student (often listed as a one‑time charge and may include cotton/filling).
- Meals / cafeteria / service fees: meal and service charges are typically extra and may be collected per semester or by monthly/termly prepayment; published examples for comparable cohorts show meal/boarding-related service charges in the low thousands of RMB per semester (amounts vary by cohort and boarding arrangement).
- Miscellaneous: examination/assessment fees for external international exam boards (IGCSE, A-Level, HKDSE/other boards), special-course material fees, and optional extracurricular programme charges are additional and are generally billed separately when applicable.
Billing schedule and payment terms
- Tuition and boarding are billed per semester; admitted families are typically required to pay one semester's fees in a single payment to the school's designated bank account by the school's published deadline at enrolment/registration. Payment of the listed semester fee normally secures a placed student's enrolment for that semester.
- One‑time and annual items (uniform, bedding, some service fees) are usually collected at first registration or at the start of the first term and are charged separately from semester tuition.
Refund information
- Refunds for tuition and boarding are handled in accordance with applicable provincial and municipal regulations for private schools: the general practice under those regulations is to calculate refundable amounts pro rata based on the student's actual attendance (deducting amounts already incurred for services provided and any non‑refundable third‑party costs), and to process refunds per the administrative timelines required by local education authorities. Families also have access to the local education bureau complaint and mediation channels if disputes arise.
Fee payment options
- The standard, repeatedly published payment route for confirmed admissions is bank payment into the school's designated bank account (one‑time semester payment to the school's account at registration). Additional campus collection methods or online bank/payment platforms may be used by the school for specific items, depending on the cohort and administrative arrangements.
Notes on amounts and programme differences
- The school operates multiple parallel streams (domestic/cultural, bilingual/small‑class, and international college programmes). Tuition and boarding differ materially between these streams; the small‑class bilingual and international‑college streams are priced significantly higher than the domestic cultural stream. Published examples for 2026 intake show the split between domestic (mid‑range per semester) and international/specialist streams (high‑range per semester).
Summary (practical points for parents)
- Expect tuition to be charged per semester; budget for separate one‑time charges (uniform, bedding) and recurring boarding/meals if your child boards. Typical published figures in current admissions notices show domestic‑track semester fees in the mid‑RMB‑ten‑thousands range and international/specialist semester fees in the higher‑RMB‑ten‑thousands to upper‑RMB‑ten‑thousands range.
