- The annual tuition figures above are the published annual fees for each year group. Per-term numbers shown are the annual amount divided by three (presented here for convenience).

Billing schedule and payment terms

- The school's published fee schedule presents tuition as annual amounts. The public fee listing does not itemize a detailed billing calendar or published installment plans on the fee table. The application fee is taken at application and deducted from tuition on successful enrolment.

Boarding fees

- No boarding fees are published in the publicly available fee schedule; the published fee information lists day-student tuition by grade only. If boarding is required, separate boarding charges would be set and published by the school.

Other costs and fees

- Sibling discount: a 5% discount for each additional child from the same family is published.
- The publicly visible fee summary does not include separate line items for uniform, school lunch, transport, extracurricular activities, exam fees, or other incidental charges. These items are not itemized on the fee table and may be charged separately.

Refund information

- The application fee is non-refundable (it is deducted from tuition when enrollment proceeds). The public fee schedule does not include a detailed tuition refund policy on the fee table; the school's admissions/terms materials set the refund and withdrawal conditions.

Fee payment options

- The school's public fee listing does not specify detailed payment methods (for example: which card types or online payment processors are accepted). The only payment-related detail published with the application guidance is that the application fee is payable on submission and deducted from tuition on enrollment. Typical payment methods used by international schools include bank transfer and card payments, but specific accepted methods are not listed on the public fee table.

Notes for planning

- The amounts listed above are the published annual tuition figures by year group as shown on the school's public fees page and on international school fee aggregators. The application fee and sibling discount are published items. The school's public fee page does not itemize many of the routine extras (uniforms, transport, meals, activity fees) nor a detailed billing calendar or public installment schedule; these commonly vary by family choices and are handled through the admissions/finance office.

If you need precise per-term billing dates, installment options, or itemized lists (uniform, transport, meal plans, activity costs), contact the school's admissions or finance office for the school's full fee schedule and payment timetable.
