Tuition fees (by year group, per term and per month)
- Tuition is a single fixed school fee for all year groups (preschool, primary and secondary): EUR 250 per student per month. This fixed monthly Schulgeld applies to every enrolled pupil regardless of year group.
- The school publishes tuition as a monthly amount only (EUR 250/month). The school does not publish distinct fee levels by year group. Because tuition is stated as a fixed monthly fee, there is no separate published per-term or per-grade fee schedule on the school's public information.
- Example totals based on the published monthly rate (for clarity only):
- EUR 250 per month (published rate).
- If charged over 12 months, that would equal EUR 3,000 per year (EUR 250 × 12).
- If charged only over 10 months of an academic year, that would equal EUR 2,500 per year (EUR 250 × 10).
(The school publishes the monthly amount; the exact number of billed months per academic year is not specified in the publicly available material.)
