Billing schedule and payment terms
- Due dates: Monthly tuition is due on the 1st of each month; parents are allowed an extension to pay until the 15th of the month. Late payment fines apply thereafter.
- Late fines: If fees are paid between the 16th and the end of the first month due, a 10% late fine is added; if paid in the second month, a 20% late fine is added. Outstanding fees carried into the next academic year may incur higher penalties and may lead to deregistration.
- Payment frequency: Annual tuition may be paid annually, termly, quarterly (every 3 months) or monthly. When paid monthly the school still treats tuition as an annual fee. Parents opting for monthly instalments remain liable for the full annual tuition as specified in the school's payment policy.
- Fees required at registration: registration fee, security deposit and the first month's fee (for registrations after the academic year begins).
Boarding fees

- Books and stationery: charged once per year to cover textbooks, workbooks, online resources, library access and a stationery kit; amounts vary by year and grade.
- Extra co‑curricular activity fees: Certain extra-curricular activities carry additional monthly fees that are not covered by tuition.
- Sibling discounts: If two siblings attend participating schools in the same school network, the younger sibling receives 10% reduction to the tuition fee; if more than two siblings attend, the third and younger siblings receive 20% reduction (applies to the tuition component only).

Enforcement and consequences for non‑payment
