Fees
Application / Admission Fees
- The prescribed admission form is charged at BDT 400.

Tuition fees by year group (per term / per year)
- No published, itemized tuition-fee schedule for individual year groups or per-term amounts is available in the school's public materials for the 2026/27 or 2025/26 academic year. The formal fee schedule is maintained with the school prospectus and fee schedule held at the school office. Parents should treat the per-term and per-year tuition amounts as unpublished by the school in its publicly available documents.

Billing schedule and payment terms
- A detailed billing schedule and formal payment terms (for example, whether fees are billed termly, quarterly or annually, due dates, late-payment penalties, or instalment options) are not published in the school's publicly available materials. The school indicates the official fee schedule is available with the prospectus at the school office.

Boarding fees (if applicable)
- No boarding or residential program or associated boarding fees are described in the school's published information. There is no published indication that boarding is offered.

Other costs and routine charges
- Admission form fee: BDT 400.
- Textbooks and stationery are provided by the school on payment; an itemized price list is supplied after admission and books/stationery are normally supplied at market prices with a small surcharge. Exact book and stationery charges are not published as fixed tuition-line items.
- Uniform requirements are specified; uniform cloth is available from Barna Tailors, New Market (uniform purchase is a parent cost). Specific uniform prices are not published. Uniform description: girls—white shirt (white T‑shirt in summer), black-and-white chequered skirt (or shalwar‑kameez from Class V onwards), white running shoes and socks; boys—white shirt with neck-tie (white T‑shirt in summer), black-and-white chequered pants, white running shoes and socks; winter additions: navy blue V-neck cardigans or sweaters and prescribed overalls for girls. Pre-school and Junior Play Group require lace-less (velcro) running shoes.
- Examination entry fees for external examinations (GCE O/A Level or public board exams) and Cambridge/board registration fees are treated separately and are not presented as included in a single tuition line; parents should expect separate charges for exam registration where applicable. No fixed amounts for these exam fees are published in the school's public materials.

Refund information
- No published refund policy, fee-withdrawal rules, or conditions for partial refunds following withdrawal/expulsion/withdrawal before term completion is available in the school's publicly available materials. The school's formal prospectus and fee schedule (held by the school office) would contain any such policies if issued.

Fee payment options
- No published list of accepted payment methods (for example, specific bank transfer details, credit-card acceptance, mobile payment platforms, or cheque policy) appears in the school's public materials. The school provides contact numbers for fee-related enquiries; parents should use those contacts to confirm accepted payment channels and to obtain account/details for bank transfer or other modes.

Summary of available fee facts for parents
- The only fee amount explicitly published in the school's public materials is the cost of the admission form: BDT 400. Routine charges such as textbooks, stationery and uniform are payable by parents, but specific prices and per-term or per-year tuition figures, billing schedule, payment terms, refund rules, and payment-method details are not published in the school's publicly available materials and are maintained in the school's prospectus/fee schedule at the school office.

Brief note on search and information gaps
- A search of the school's publicly accessible pages and prospectus-related materials did not locate a published, itemized fee schedule for the 2026/27 or 2025/26 academic year; the site repeatedly indicates the official fee schedule is available with the prospectus at the school office rather than listing per-class or per-term tuition amounts online. The school's public materials therefore provide only a small number of explicit fee facts (admission-form cost, textbook/stationery and uniform arrangements) and do not publish the comprehensive fee breakdown requested.
