Introduction

Maya International School serves learners aged 3 to 14, with iPrimary for 3-4-year-olds and iLower Secondary for 11-14-year-olds. The curriculum includes English, Mathematics, Science, Computing, Global Citizenship, Geography, History, Design and Technology, Art, Music, and Physical Education. This arrangement provides a clear path from early years through lower secondary within an international context. The program blends core academic subjects with creative and physical disciplines to support well-rounded development. Global Citizenship education helps students understand different cultures and responsibilities beyond the classroom. Design and Technology and Computing encourage practical problem-solving and hands-on learning, while the arts and physical education offer opportunities for expression and collaboration. The school's structure is designed to meet the needs of families seeking continuity in a globally minded education during formative years, with a focus on developing curious, capable learners prepared for the next stage of their education. A welcoming learning environment supports families from abroad today.

Fees
Application fees
- No application or registration fee amount is published in the school's publicly available admission information. The admission page describes the application process (form, interview, testing and documentation) but does not list a numeric application fee.

Tuition fees by year group and term
- The school does not publish a term-by-term or year-by-year tuition schedule on its public pages. There are no publicly posted figures for tuition by age, grade or term for the 2026/27 academic year (or for 2025/26) on the school's published pages. Parents must obtain the school's official, itemised fee schedule directly from the school for exact per-term and per-year amounts.

Billing schedule and payment terms
- No billing schedule, payment-deadline calendar, or written payment terms (for example dates when term fees are due, late-payment penalties, or installment plans) are published on the school's public pages. The school's admission information describes the process for applying and testing but does not include billing or payment-term details.

Boarding fees (if applicable)
- The school's publicly available information describes class levels from early years through lower secondary (KG to Grade 8) and makes no mention of boarding provision; the school appears to operate as a day school. No boarding fees are published because boarding does not appear to be offered.

Other costs and fees (uniforms, transport, meals, activities, exam fees, learning materials)
- No itemised lists or prices for uniforms, school transport, meals/cafeteria charges, textbooks, stationery, extracurricular activity fees, or examination/assessment fees are published on the school's public pages. Parents should treat these as additional likely cost categories and obtain an itemised list directly from the school.

Refund information
- There is no publicly posted refund or withdrawal policy (for example, rules about partial refunds when a student withdraws mid-term) on the school's admission or classes pages. No published refund amounts, notice periods, or conditions were found.

Fee payment options (credit card, bank transfer, cash, electronic payment)
- The school's public pages include contact details but do not list accepted payment methods or instructions (credit card, bank transfer, mobile payment, cash). Parents should request the school's accepted payment methods and invoicing details when asking for the fee schedule.

What to do next (how to obtain the official fee schedule and exact figures)
- To obtain precise numeric amounts (application fee, tuition by year/term, boarding if later offered, uniform costs, billing calendar, refund terms, and accepted payment methods), contact the school's admissions office using the phone numbers or email listed on the school pages: phone (251) 922750685/86, 0116668443/011669750, 0116668098; email info@mayainternationalschool.org. The school's public listing (Bole Sub City, Addis Ababa) confirms these contact details.

Summary of search and gaps found:
- The school's public pages (home, admission and classes) describe the admissions process, required documents and the age/grade levels served but do not publish any numeric fee schedule or payment terms for AY 2026/27 or AY 2025/26. No third-party authoritative listing with a complete, current fee table for this school was found during the search. For exact, up-to-date figures and the school's formal terms (billing calendar, refund policy and payment methods), obtain the school's official fee schedule directly from admissions using the contact details above.

The school schedules these steps at a time that works for the applicant. 2. After the interview and testing, the application and recommendations are submitted to the school to determine whether acceptance is possible or if additional information or testing is needed. Additional information or testing may be requested as part of the evaluation. 3. The admission decision is made by a committee of school management, considering available space at the given grade level, the appropriateness of the match between family and the school, and priority given to siblings of current students.
