Billing schedule and payment terms

- The admission fee must be paid within five working days of the invoice. The enrolment contract states that payment of all applicable fees is a parental responsibility even when employer support is provided. Invoices may be addressed to either parents or the employer as requested on the enrolment form.
- Published materials present annual tuition amounts; a full-year invoice is used for the tuition charge. For mid-year admissions the school uses a published prorated fee structure (see next section). Specific instalment dates or accepted payment methods are not specified in the published fee schedule and enrolment contract.

Refunds and early withdrawal

- Refund on withdrawal during the school year: a 25% refund on the total school year is applied for withdrawals up to and including the end of Term 1; withdrawals after the end of Term 1 receive no refund. (The published fee schedule also presents the equivalent date-based cutoff used for that school year.)

Fee payment options

- The publicly available fee schedule and enrolment contract specify invoice handling and parental responsibility for payment but do not list detailed payment methods (for example, specific bank account details, IBAN/BIC, credit card acceptance, or online payment options) in the published fee materials. Invoices are issued to the billing contact nominated on the enrolment form.

Administrative notes (billing practice)

- Invoices may be issued to parents or to an employer address supplied on the enrolment form; regardless of invoicing to an employer, parents remain responsible for payment. The enrolment contract and fee schedule are the operative documents for fee obligations.
