Fees

Application fees

- School-wide published chargeable (tuition) fees are stated as annual amounts as follows:
- Form 1 (S1): HKD 30,000 per year.
- Form 2 (S2): HKD 30,000 per year.

- The published figures appear as annual school fees; no per-term fee amounts are published publicly for the Secondary Section. The public school profile shows the annual chargeable fees but does not provide a published breakdown by term.

Billing schedule and payment terms

- The school's public materials list the annual chargeable fees but do not publish a standard billing schedule or detailed payment terms for tuition (for example, per-term or instalment deadlines and surcharges are not published in the materials available online). The fee remission and scholarship pages describe how remissions and scholarships are administered, but a standard tuition invoicing timetable and payment-terms document is not published in the public pages.

- Scholarship payments (where scholarships are awarded) are paid in two equal instalments by direct credit to the parent's designated bank account; the school issues scholarship offer letters and the payments are scheduled in November and March. (This applies to scholarship disbursement only, not to general tuition invoicing.)

Boarding fees

- The Secondary Section does not publish any boarding or hostel facilities or boarding fees. No boarding/hostel charge is listed in the school profile for the Secondary Section. The school is listed as a day secondary school (no boarding fees published).

Other costs and fees (uniforms, books, activities, association fees, etc.)

- Parent-Teacher Association (PTA) fee: HKD 500 per year is listed as an annual charge.

- The school's public profile does not publish fixed amounts for uniforms, textbooks, field trips, uniform purchase, student ID replacement, extracurricular charges or other ‘non-standard' items for the Secondary Section; the profile shows ‘Approved Charges for Non-standard Items' and ‘Other Charges / Fees' as blank for the Secondary Section. This indicates no standard published amounts for those items in the public profile. Individual items (textbooks, camps, trips, instrument tuition, extra-curricular camps or overseas trips) are commonly charged separately by most schools, but no specific standard figures for those items are published for the Secondary Section.

Refund information

- The school maintains a formal Fee Remission Scheme and may grant fee remission up to 100% in cases of proven financial hardship or emergency circumstances; fee remissions and scholarships are awarded annually and the school provides a self-assessment platform and application procedures for fee remission. The fee remission policy and the availability of emergency assistance are published in the school's fee-remission documentation.

Fee payment options

- The school's publicly listed pages and school profile provide the chargeable amounts and fee-remission/scholarship procedures but do not publish a comprehensive list of accepted payment methods (for example: bank transfer details, FPS/PayMe/PPS, in-person cheque, or credit-card gateway information) in the public profile. No standard payment-method text (credit card / bank account number / online payment gateway) is published in the public pages inspected.
