Application / registration fees
- Registration (one‑time, non‑refundable): EUR 650 for new pupils.
Tuition fees by year group (annual and per‑term)
- Kindergarten (K1–K3) and Primary (Grade 1–5): Annual tuition EUR 8,385 — equivalent to approximately EUR 2,795 per term (three term billing). For a child in K1 the first year total including the one‑time registration fee is EUR 9,035.
- Lower secondary (Grades 6–8): Annual tuition EUR 8,785 — approximately EUR 2,928 per term.
- Grade 9 (Year 10): Annual tuition EUR 7,485 — approximately EUR 2,495 per term.
- Grade 10 (Year 11 / early high school stage shown): Annual tuition EUR 13,595 — approximately EUR 4,532 per term.
- Upper secondary (Grades 11–12 / IB Diploma years): Annual tuition EUR 26,470 — approximately EUR 8,823 per term. (Terminale / IB Diploma years may include additional exam/registration charges.)
Billing schedule and payment terms
- Standard term invoicing: term fees are payable in advance on the three term due dates (historically 20 September, 20 December and 20 March). Annual fees are payable with the first payment. Families may opt for a monthly direct‑debit plan instead of termly payments. Late payments incur interest at 12% per annum and recovery costs are charged to the family; non‑payment may lead to refusal of class admission. Any term or year started is due in full. A deposit (typically one‑third of the annual tuition for day pupils at first registration, or half for boarding in some years) is required to confirm a new enrolment; that deposit is refundable only in cases of documented force majeure.
Boarding fees (internat)
- Boarding is available at the Lille campus. Published boarding rates (examples from recent published fee schedules) have included: 5‑day boarding and full‑year boarding options. (Example historical figures: 5‑day boarding and weekend exceptions and full‑board packages were in the range of EUR 15,270–EUR 23,185 (earlier schedules) and EUR 17,030–EUR 25,875 in later published internat schedules). Boarding invoicing for internat has been arranged differently from day‑pupil tuition in some years (commonly with a first instalment required before the school year and a second instalment mid‑year). Exact boarding prices and the precise billing rhythm applicable for a given academic year are set in the school's published boarding fee schedule.
Other compulsory and optional costs
- Lunch plans (examples from published schedules): a 4‑day paid Lunch Plan and 5‑day Lunch Plan, Lunch Box options and single meal tickets — example amounts previously published include: Lunch Plan 4 days EUR 1,807; Lunch Plan 5 days EUR 2,259; Lunch Box 4 days EUR 911; Lunch Box 5 days EUR 1,139; individual meal ticket EUR 15. A Parents Association subscription (per family) has been shown as EUR 30.
- Insurance: a school insurance charge appears on invoices (example amount shown EUR 25; in some years this has been refundable on proof of external cover when provided within the stated deadline).
- Level‑specific or programme‑specific supplements (examples for secondary/IB years): supplementary fees have been published for English language support (where required), French as an additional language, IB registration/exam administration (example IB registration fee for Terminale shown around EUR 510), university‑counselling packages and other level specific costs; these are invoiced in addition to base tuition where applicable. Example amounts previously published include language support supplements of several thousand euros and university counselling fees for college application packages.
Refunds and deposit policy
- Deposits and registration fees: the registration fee is non‑refundable. Deposits (a fraction of annual tuition required to confirm a place) are refundable only in cases of demonstrated and documented force majeure and subject to the school's approval. Annual tuition is not refunded; where a pupil leaves during the year, only certain items such as subsequent term lunch fees have historically been refundable provided the school receives formal written notice within the timelines set out in the school's fee conditions. Any started term is due in full.
Fee payment options and practical notes on how invoices are settled
- Documented payment arrangements include: termly invoicing with the three standard term due dates and an option for payment by monthly direct debit (prélèvement) spread over a set number of instalments (historically nine monthly instalments for Lille day pupils). Boarding fees have historically followed a different instalment schedule (for example, half before the year starts and half in December). Published fee documents specify that invoices must be settled according to the chosen timetable and that late payments attract interest and collection costs. Specific accepted instrument types (for example SEPA direct debit mandates or bank transfer details) are handled through the school's finance office and appear on invoices.
Sibling discounts
- Published schedules include sibling reductions: a 10% reduction for the second child, 20% for the third child and 50% from the fourth child onwards (applies to tuition lines where stated).
