The school's earlier fee schedules show a consistent three-term billing split (first term 40%, second term 30%, third term 30%); per-term amounts above were calculated using that split to produce term instalments consistent with the school's billing pattern. Additional fee components commonly requested by parents — a published application/admission fee amount, itemised transport/lunch/uniform charges, a formal refund/withdrawal policy, and the list of accepted payment instruments — are not itemised in the publicly available 2025–26 fee document or admission policy.
