One-time / initial charges at enrollment

- Facility / building improvement levy (one-time at enrollment; 小中学部): MYR 5,000.
- Combined example of typical initial payment for entry to primary/secondary: Entrance fee (MYR 4,000) + Facility levy (MYR 5,000) = MYR 9,000 total due at enrollment.
- For kindergarten, the initial payment is the kindergarten entrance fee (MYR 2,630); facility levy is not listed for the kindergarten section.

Billing schedule and payment terms

- The published tuition and maintenance amounts are expressed as monthly rates. After enrollment, tuition and the school maintenance fund are billed every three months (quarterly). When a student is enrolled for any part of a month, the full month's monthly charge applies (no pro‑rata/day‑rate calculation).
- Entrance/initial fees (entrance fee and facility levy) are payable before or at enrollment. Receipts are not issued for entrance fees, initial fees, or regular school charges in the stated documents.

Boarding fees

- Boarding is not provided; the school lists transport options (Pandu Jaya school bus, contracted community buses, or parental drop‑off) and does not operate boarding/dormitory facilities.

Other costs and typical extras

- Emergency-food charge and general insurance are included in the published tuition amounts.
- School‑designated polo shirt and PE kit are used for certain events; the primary and secondary guidance notes state that school‑designated items may be purchased at AEON (Mid Valley). Kindergarten notes state there is no uniform requirement. Prices for these clothing items are not published in the fee schedule.
- Occasional activity costs (camping/stay programs, trips, special events) and replacement costs for lost or damaged library or learning materials may be charged as needed; the school's handbooks and activity notices cover those items.

Refund and cancellation rules (fees)

- Entrance fees and initial enrollment payments (entrance fee and other initial fees) are non‑refundable once paid. Monthly charges are not prorated by days in a month; if a student is enrolled for any day in a month, that month's full fee is charged.

Fee payment options (how enrollment and charges are paid)

- Enrollment/initial payments are processed via ADAPTIS or by credit card, as stated for the enrollment payment procedure. The school documentation advises confirming bank transfer limits before making payments and notes that corporate payments can be handled by arrangement. Regular billing is issued quarterly; the school provides specific payment instructions with each billing.

Practical notes for parents (fees only)

- Treat the monthly amounts as the base unit: multiply by the number of months in each term to produce term charges and by 12 for the annual total. Term lengths are Term 1 = 4 months, Term 2 = 5 months, Term 3 = 3 months.
- Expect the following recurring monthly totals for budgeting (examples): Kindergarten MYR 2,330; Primary tuition MYR 1,670; Secondary tuition MYR 1,890; School maintenance fund MYR 370; PTA MYR 8; school bus (Pandu Jaya example) MYR ~409.50–439.50 depending on age/route. Add one‑time entry charges when planning initial costs.

If you need an exact numeric total for a specific enrollment scenario (for example: two children, one in primary and one in kindergarten, using the school bus), use the listed monthly and one‑time figures and apply the term or annual multipliers shown above.

All pupils hold Japanese nationality.
