Fees
Application fees
- No published, specific application, registration, or seat-deposit amount for the 2026/27 or 2025/26 academic year is available. The school's admissions/contact information is provided for enquiries but the site does not publish a numeric application fee schedule.
Tuition fees (term / year breakdown)
- There is no publicly available, up-to-date fee schedule that lists tuition by year group or by term for 2026/27 or 2025/26.
- Public records from a 2024 court filing show specific term payments for an individual pupil: a payment of KSh 54,900 for Term I 2024 and a demand note showing KSh 46,100 due for Term II 2024. These figures are recorded amounts for that case and should not be interpreted as a complete or current published tuition table by year group.
Billing schedule and payment terms
- The school publishes an academic calendar (term-based) but does not publish a public fee-invoice schedule, payment deadlines, or standard payment-penalty terms in a fee document accessible online for 2026/27 or 2025/26. Parents are directed to contact Admissions for fee enquiries.
Boarding fees (where applicable)
- Rophine Field operates boarding facilities (girls' and boys' hostels are described and boarding services are offered), but no published boarding fee amounts (weekly/monthly/termly/annual boarding charges) are available in public materials for 2026/27 or 2025/26.
Other costs and recurring extras
- No itemised public price list is available for uniforms, examination fees, transport (bus) charges, meals, extracurricular activity fees, books, or insurance for 2026/27 or 2025/26. A legal record of school-related proceedings refers to auxiliary school expenses including uniform, transport, writing materials and school books as items charged alongside tuition in practice, but amounts for these items are not published.
Refunds and fee-remission policy
- There is no publicly posted, detailed refund or fee-remission policy (for withdrawal, term-notice, non-attendance, or other circumstances) available for 2026/27 or 2025/26. Specifics on refunds or notice periods are not published online and must be confirmed directly with Admissions.
Fee payment options
- No explicit list of accepted payment methods (bank transfer details, online card payment, mobile money, cash-office policy) is published in the public fee materials for 2026/27 or 2025/26. The school's admissions and contact channels are the published routes for enquiries about fees and payments.
Summary of available numeric figures and what is not available
- Available numeric figures in public records are limited to amounts recorded in a 2024 court filing (KSh 54,900 paid for Term I 2024; KSh 46,100 due for Term II 2024). These are specific transaction/demand amounts from that record and do not constitute a full published fee schedule by year group for 2025/26 or 2026/27.
- The school operates multiple campuses including an International Campus and publishes a school calendar and boarding facility descriptions, but it does not publish a complete, itemised fee schedule (application fees, tuition by year group per term, boarding charges, uniforms, refund policy, or payment-method instructions) for the 2026/27 or 2025/26 academic year in publicly accessible fee documents. For clarity on any specific numeric fee (application fee, tuition for a particular year group, boarding charge, or payment method), contact the school's Admissions/Finance office via the published contact channels.
