Day Structure

The school day: KG 8:50–14:30; Primary 1–2 8:15–14:30; Primary 3–6 8:30–15:00. If extra activities or rehearsals are required, parents are informed in advance and bus-riding students' parents must pick up their children.

Bus Service

Bus service is provided. Routes are determined by the shortest route; parents must not interfere. Students must wait at the same pickup point and be ready five minutes before the bus arrives; the student waits for the bus and the bus attendant cannot leave the bus. Changes from bus to car require written parental permission; misbehavior can result in loss of bus privileges.

Fees

Application fees

- An admission (application) fee of L.E. 2,500 is required after completing the application form and before sitting the admittance exam. This amount is non‑refundable unless the school declines the application.

Tuition fees by year group (per term / per year)

- Detailed tuition amounts by year group and per term are not published in the school's publicly available fee pages; a full, itemised tuition schedule per year group and per term for the 2026/27 academic year (or for 2025/26) is not available in the school's published materials. Therefore specific numeric tuition figures per grade/term cannot be provided here.

Billing schedule and payment terms

- Annual tuition is billed in two instalments: the first instalment is due on 1 September and the second instalment is due on 1 January.
- Bus (transportation) fees are due on 1 September. Fees are not expected to be paid later than two weeks after their due date.

Boarding fees (if applicable)

- Dar El Tarbiah IGCSE Zamalek does not publish any boarding provision or boarding fee schedule in its public materials; boarding fees are therefore not applicable based on the available information. The school offers day schooling and an organised bus (transportation) service.

Other costs or fees

- Transportation: bus fees (payment due 1 September) apply for families using the school bus service.
- Uniforms: purchase of the official school uniform is mandatory and represents an additional cost.
- Extracurricular activities, school trips and some after‑school programmes may incur additional charges.
- External examination/registration fees for IGCSE/A‑Level sessions are set by the British Council and/or exam boards; those registration fees vary year to year and are invoiced according to the exam board deadlines. The British Council does not issue refunds for exam registration payments.
- Enquiry About Results (EAR) / remarking/reporting services carry fees set by the exam authority; if a remarking request results in an increased grade, the associated fee will be refunded.

Refund information

- The admission fee (L.E. 2,500) is non‑refundable except where the school declines the application.
- British Council exam registration fees are non‑refundable.
- Fees charged by external exam authorities for EAR/remarking are refundable only if the student's grade is raised following the service.

Fee payment options

- The school's publicly available pages and fee notices do not list specific accepted payment methods (for example: bank transfer, credit card, cheque, or cash). No definitive, published statement of accepted payment channels was found in the school's fee pages.

Availability of full tuition schedule

- The school's public fees pages indicate timing and some fee types (admission fee, bus fee, instalment due dates and typical additional charges) but do not publish a full numerical tuition fee table by grade or per term for the 2026/27 or 2025/26 academic years in the publicly available materials. Specific per‑grade and per‑term tuition figures are therefore not available here.
