- Example grade group figures shown: Grades K–5: USD 36,152; Grades K–6: USD 41,165; Grades K–7: USD 42,493.
- No full per-term schedules that allocate those annual amounts into specific term payments for the 2026/27 or 2025/26 academic year are published in the school's public pricing materials.
Billing schedule and payment terms
- The school's public materials describe multiple payment options: full payment by an upfront date, a two-installment option, and a multi-month instalment plan using an online tuition-billing partner (payment-plan percentages and due dates are described in the published payment-plan example).
- The school uses Smart Tuition for tuition billing and payment-plan administration, which supports online instalment plans and automated billing.
Boarding fees
- No boarding fee schedule or explicit boarding programme fee is published in the publicly available admissions or pricing materials. The school's admissions description refers to education for ages 3–18 but does not publish boarding cost details. Therefore, no boarding fees are available in public materials.
Other costs and mandatory extras

Refund information
- No publicly published refund policy or explicit refund amounts/conditions for tuition, deposits, or registration fees is available in the school's published pricing or admissions material.
Fee payment options

Specific accepted payment methods (for example: which cards, direct bank transfer details or currency handling) are not published in the publicly available pricing pages.

Short summary of findings and remaining gaps
- The school's public pricing page displays a small set of headline tuition figures and describes available payment-plan structures administered through Smart Tuition, but it does not publish a full, itemised 2026/27 (or 2025/26) fee schedule showing: per-year-group annual tuition clearly allocated into per-term amounts, application/registration fee amounts, boarding fees, uniform or ancillary charges, deposit amounts, or a published refund policy. The billing examples and contact details above are taken from the school's publicly available admissions and pricing pages.
