Application and joining charges
- Application fee: €750 per child, payable once when the application form is submitted.
- Refundable deposit: €1,000 charged on the first invoice for each new student; this deposit is billed once only and refunded as a deduction on the final Extras bill when the pupil leaves, provided all outstanding charges have been paid and correct written notice of withdrawal has been given.
Annual fee components
- The annual school fee for each pupil is made up of three elements: tuition fee (varies by year group), Building Fund (€1,500 per student per year, maximum two payments per family) and Stability Fund (€200 per student per year, maximum two payments per family).

Billing schedule and payment terms
- Standard billing structure: parents receive four invoices that together cover the yearly school fees. For the 2025/2026 schedule the four due dates were: Bill 1 — 31 May 2025; Bill 2 — 30 September 2025; Bill 3 — 31 January 2026; Bill 4 — 30 April 2026. The same four-bill structure (with those due-date positions in the school year) is used for the fees shown above.
- Bill 2 includes the Building and Stability funds; companies paying fees can be invoiced annually. Parents who wish to receive one annual bill or to arrange monthly instalments are asked to contact the Billing Officer.
- If students join or leave during the school year, fees are prorated according to the month of joining/leaving; detailed prorated amounts and the related notice deadlines for each month are set out in the school's fee schedule.
- Overdue bills: the school reserves the right to charge interest on overdue amounts and applies a €40 administrative fee for overdue bills; school reports may be retained until all outstanding invoices are paid.
- Note relating to 2026/27 billing timing: from the 2026/2027 school year the first bill (Bill 1) will increase to €3,000 and the amounts for Bills 2–4 will be adjusted accordingly.
Extras, other charges and typical additional costs
- Extras (items such as canteen, after-school activities, individual music lessons and other incidental charges) are billed separately in November, March, May and July and are payable within 30 days of those invoices. Any additional learning support provided to a student may incur separate additional charges discussed with parents.
- School online shop items (examples and typical prices): umbrella €20; folio €8; travel mug €7; scarf €10; water bottle €7.50; apron €17. These items and other branded small items are available from the school's online shop. (Uniform clothing items are not listed as fixed-price items in the fee schedule; branded accessories and small items are shown in the shop.)
Boarding
- Boarding is not listed in the school fee schedule; no boarding fees are included in the published school-fee schedule for the school year shown.
Refund and withdrawal terms
- Deposit refund: the €1,000 deposit is refunded as a deduction on the final Extras bill when the pupil leaves, provided all other fees and charges have been paid and correct written notice of withdrawal has been received by the Head of Finance and Administration.
- Required notice and penalty: written notice of withdrawal must be given in accordance with the contract; in default of correct notice the family accepts liability to pay one third of the applicable annual tuition fees in lieu of notice. The standard notice deadlines for leaving at the end of each term are: 30 September for leaving at the end of the Autumn term; 30 January for leaving at the end of the Spring term; 30 April for leaving at the end of the Summer term. If a pupil leaves mid-term, a full three months' notice is required and billing dates may be amended.
Payment methods and options
- Invoices include the school's bank details and bank transfer is the standard payment mechanism; the school's documents note that bank details are not planned to change. Companies can be invoiced annually; parents may request one annual invoice or discuss monthly instalments with the Billing Officer. The Billing Officer and the Head of Finance and Administration handle billing enquiries and account arrangements.
