Fee Breakdown

Fees

Application and registration fees
- A one‑time "droit de première inscription" (first‑registration fee) is required at first enrolment; this fee is non‑refundable. Reductions/exemptions apply in specified cases (local staff: 50% reduction; pupils previously registered within the French‑program network: partial or full exemption; alumni reductions may apply).

Tuition fees — annual amounts by school section (listed as annual school fees)
- Pré‑élémentaire (pre‑school): MUR 149,000 per year.
- Élémentaire (primary): MUR 165,000 per year.
- Collège (lower secondary): MUR 194,000 per year.
- Lycée (upper secondary): MUR 209,000 per year.

Tuition — per term and payment schedule
- Billing options offered for tuition:
- Annual payment (total tuition paid in one instalment before the start of the school year).
- Two‑term payment: first term (covers August–December) due before 5 August; second term (covers January–June) due before 5 January. When the two‑term option is chosen, each term invoice corresponds to the school period indicated (term amounts are the annual tuition divided into the two invoiced periods).
- Ten monthly instalments (August–May) by automatic bank standing order; each monthly instalment must be paid before the 5th of the month.
- Early‑payment discount: a 5% discount on the annual tuition is available when the full annual tuition is paid in a single payment within the school's stated early‑payment deadline. Sibling discounts apply (10% for three children, 15% for four children) and staff discounts are also specified.

Mandatory additional annual charges (examples shown as per the published re‑registration pro‑forma)
- Section générale (typical additional items by entry level; amounts in MUR):
- Grande Section (GS): miscellaneous charges totaling MUR 3,750 (components include supplies, insurance, activities as applicable).
- CP–CM2 (each): combined standard additional charges typically MUR 6,450 (components such as pedagogical tools, support fund, supplies, accident insurance, activities).
- Collège years (6ème–3ème): combined standard additional charges typically MUR 7,750.
- Lycée years (2nde–Terminale, non‑STMG): combined standard additional charges typically MUR 9,750; for STMG pathway additional listed components may increase this (example pro‑forma shows MUR 12,750 for certain STMG years).
- Section Internationale (SI) specific additional annual charge: an annual SI inscription component shown as MUR 33,000 in the pro‑forma; this is added to the SI students' other mandatory charges. Net additional totals for SI students are shown in the pro‑forma examples.
- Other recurring mandatory items listed in the financial regulations and pro‑forma: pedagogical tools package, annual supplies fee (primary), 24/24 accident insurance, annual "fonds de soutien" (support fund), and activities/cultural & sports contribution. Many of these items are invoiced annually at re‑registration and are non‑fractionnable and non‑refundable unless explicitly stated otherwise.

Exam and assessment fees
- Registration fees for public examinations (DNB, baccalauréat and baccalauréat anticipé) are charged annually; these examination fees are refundable only if requested before the exams under the conditions stated. An attestation of payment is required for administrative registration to exam boards.

Boarding / residence
- The establishment operates as a day school; no full‑time or weekly boarding service is listed (no boarding fees are published).

Other optional or ancillary costs
- Transport: school transport is organised via private providers; transport fees are invoiced separately according to chosen route/provider and are not included in the tuition figures above.
- Uniforms, personal stationery and optional extracurricular activity fees: these are additional to the amounts above; certain school supplies are provided via the school's supplies scheme (primary) for a stated annual charge which is mandatory for pupils in that level.

Refund and reimbursement rules
- The one‑time first‑registration fee is non‑refundable. Certain annual items (supplies, pedagogical tools, accident insurance) are explicitly non‑refundable.
- The support fund (fonds de soutien) is refundable only on request and only at the time of the pupil's departure from the school; the school may offset outstanding amounts against any refund and small residuals under a stated threshold may be transferred to the school's solidarity fund.
- Examination fees are refundable before the exams on written request.
- In the event of departure during the school year, tuition is invoiced pro rata by month of effective attendance; any month started is due. Specific detailed refund and adjustment rules are described in the financial regulations.

Payment methods and banking details
- All payments are made in Mauritian rupees (MUR).
- Tuition payments: bank transfers are the standard method for tuition (the school publishes the beneficiary account and IBAN/SWIFT for bank transfers). Automatic standing orders are used for the 10‑month instalment option.
- Other payments: cash or cheque may be accepted at the school cashier during opening hours for applicable items; cheques and cash deposited directly at the bank are discouraged because identification of the payer can be problematic. Bank charges are borne by the payer.
- The school issues invoices, receipts and reminders via the parent portal; families are expected to use the portal to view payment schedules and payment history.

Key administrative notes
- Sibling and staff discounts are applied as described in the financial regulations (e.g., 10% for families with three children, 15% for four; 50% staff reduction for eligible local staff). A 5% discount applies when the full annual tuition is paid in one single payment within the published early‑payment deadline. Payment schedules and applicable discounts are applied as indicated on the invoices.

Brief note on available published figures
- The published re‑registration pro‑forma shows the annual tuition figures and the standard mandatory additional charges and their net totals (examples reproduced above). The school's financial regulations set billing schedules, payment methods, discounts, refund conditions and the list of mandatory annual charges. Exact one‑time first‑registration amounts and some per‑level one‑time entry charges are specified by the school at the time of admission and are not itemised in the re‑registration pro‑forma file.

Lycée La Bourdonnais is Mauritius' long‑standing French‑programme school, AEFE‑conventioned and accredited by the French Ministry of Education. It serves ages 5 to 18 with a continuous path from kindergarten to terminale and a 100% baccalaureate pass rate. French is the main language of instruction, with English playing a central role from primary school onward. From CP, the British Section strengthens English language learning. The school offers a plurilingual curriculum with French and English as core languages and additional offerings in Spanish, German, Mandarin and Russian. English is taught through two tracks: the International British Section and the European Section. The International British Section combines the French Baccalaureate with two English A Levels and leads to the OIB, while also enabling Cambridge examinations and a French Ministry diploma. The European Section focuses on English, History and Geography. The Avançons Ensemble program supports inclusive education. The campus at Forest-Side hosts a Centre de Documentation et d'Information (CDI), and the school has trained about 8,630 graduates with around 82 secondary teachers.
