Fee Breakdown

Fees

Application fees
- No public fixed application/enrolment fee amounts for the 2026/27 or 2025/26 academic years are published on the school's registration pages.
- A small administrative fee is required to place a child on the waiting list; the exact amount is not published.

Tuition fees by year group (per term / per year)
- Specific tuition figures by year group, and per-term or per-year breakdowns for 2026/27 (and for 2025/26 where 2026/27 is not available) are not published on the school's publicly available registration pages.
- New students are treated as new for fee schedules; siblings may be given priority for places but no public schedule of sibling discounts or per-year tuition amounts is available.

Billing schedule and payment terms
- The official payment date is defined as the date the bank confirmation is handed to the school office and stamped (not the date the money is paid into the bank).
- Payments received into the bank and with receipts handed in and stamped before July 31 will be charged at the current year's rate.
- Current students must complete the registration process by the published registration deadline (example deadline referenced for continuing students: July 19).
- Outstanding fees from prior years must be covered under a signed payment agreement before a place for the next year may be booked.

Boarding fees
- No boarding provision or boarding fee schedule is published on the school's public registration pages; no boarding fees are listed. Boarding is not stated as an available option on the public registration information.

Other costs and additional charges
- The school notes that expatriate children and students with special needs may require extra tuition and, in extreme cases, extra charges; specific charge amounts are not published.
- A parental registration questionnaire and a signed parental agreement are required as part of registration; associated administrative or document fees (if any) are not published.
- No publicly posted, itemised amounts for uniform costs, textbooks, activity fees, transport, exam fees or similar ancillary charges were found on the registration pages.

Refund and compensation policy
- In the event the school is unable to start or normal operations are not operative, over-payments and affected fees are handled by a voucher system; vouchers are offered as compensation and are redeemable within a 12-month period. This voucher arrangement is described rather than a direct cash-refund policy.

Fee payment options
- The registration information explicitly refers to bank payment and to submitting the bank confirmation to the school office to establish the payment date. No published details were found listing credit-card, online card payment processors, or other electronic payment methods; the school's pages emphasize bank payment confirmation and stamped receipts.

Summary of findings and limitations
- The school's public registration pages and downloadable registration documents available on the site do not publish a current, itemised fee schedule (per-term or per-year amounts) for 2026/27 or 2025/26. Available registration material dates from earlier years and contains policy statements about payment timing, vouchers, waiting-list fees, special-needs surcharges, and registration deadlines, but does not provide the numeric fee tables requested.

Rispins International School in Ethiopia operates two campuses, Bahir Dar and Bishoftu, serving learners from Kindergarten through an embryonic High School. As a satellite of the British International School Addis Ababa, it combines the British Curriculum with a bespoke program and incorporates the Ethiopian National curriculum, taught in English with local language study where appropriate. Class sizes of 28–30 support small-group instruction and individualized feedback. The Bishoftu campus offers extensive sports facilities, while the Bahir Dar campuses host a Saturday Spoken English for Kids program and outreach initiatives. A distinctive feature is drama and theatre as a core learning method, including a historic Macbeth production. The school collaborates with Cheshire – Action for Inclusion to support inclusive education and scholarships. Community projects and expanded language, professional and academic skills are emphasized through outreach. Events include Nations and Nationalities Day and Graduation Day, underscoring international exposure in an Ethiopian setting.
