Application fees

Tuition fees by year group (per term / per year)

Billing schedule and payment terms
- No published billing schedule, payment-deadline calendar, or formal payment-terms (for example: termly, monthly, or annual invoicing; late-payment penalties; or required deposits) is available in the school's public practical or enrollment information.
Boarding fees (if applicable)
- Children's Castle International operates as a day school (kindergarten and primary) and does not list boarding as an offered service; therefore, no boarding fees are published.
Other costs or fees (uniform, lunches, resources, extracurriculars, transport, insurance)
- No specific amounts for additional costs such as uniform, lunches, school materials, extracurricular activity fees, transport/shuttle services, or compulsory insurance are published. There is no public fee schedule for ancillary services.

Brief summary of what was checked and what is missing
- The school's public pages (general information, practical information, enrollment and contact pages) were reviewed; these pages confirm the school's location, levels offered (kindergarten and primary), and contact details but do not publish any fee amounts, per-term or per-year tuition schedules, payment schedules, or formal fee policies. For that reason, specific numeric values for application fees, tuition by year/term, boarding fees, ancillary charges, refund rules, and accepted payment methods are not available in public materials.
Children's Castle International in Italy welcomes children aged 2 to 11 to a bilingual, international learning environment. The nursery uses Montessori methods, while the Cambridge Primary curriculum guides the primary years, mapped to UK stages: Class 1 (2–3) nursery; Class 2 (3–4) Foundation Stage; Class 3 (4–5) Reception; Class 4 (5–6) Year 1. Cambridge Primary is complemented by Italian language studies to support mobility between countries. The school is Cambridge International-affiliated, a member of RISA, and approved by Italy's Ministry of Education (MIUR). Learning areas cover Literacy, Mathematics, Sensorial, Practical Life, Creativity, Cultural Studies, and Outdoors. The campus overlooks Lake Albano and sits in a villa with a large compound, green spaces, a forest, parking, an airy gym, spacious classrooms, a lunch room, and child-sized toilets, all compliant with Italian health and safety requirements. The program blends Montessori in kindergarten with Cambridge in the primary years within a bilingual framework.
