Fees
Application & Admission Fees

Tuition fees by school year (amounts and billing units)
- The school operates for the following year groups: Kindergarten, Primary (elementary), Secondary, and Preparatory (high school). Tuition is charged by grade level across these sections. - Tuition is billed as a monthly tuition (discounts are described as applied to each monthly tuition). Specific per-term or per-year numeric tuition rates for any grade level are not published on the school's public admissions or FAQ pages. - Because no numeric schedule for 2026/27 (or 2025/26) tuition rates is published publicly, exact amounts per term or per academic year by grade cannot be provided here.
Billing schedule and payment terms
- The school's materials reference a monthly tuition billing structure (sibling discounts are applied to the monthly tuition), indicating that tuition payments are collected on a monthly basis. No detailed public schedule listing due dates, late-payment penalties, or installment plan options is published on the admissions or FAQ pages. - The initial enrollment payment includes the admission fee and insurance components; other charges (see below) are billed separately as applicable.
Boarding fees
- The school provides day education from preschool through preparatory (no boarding or residential program is listed). Boarding fees are therefore not applicable.
Other costs and recurring fees
- APF (Parent-Teacher Organization) fee: an annual fee is requested for each enrolled student. The APF amount is not published on the public pages. - Uniforms: uniforms are sold at the school store; prices vary by size.

Individual books/supplies lists are published seasonally but package prices are not published as fixed public rates. - Transportation: the school provides school transportation service (noted for routes to the north). Transportation is an additional service and any route, seat availability, or fee information is not published in numeric detail on the public admissions/FAQ pages. - Scholarships and sibling discounts: the school can grant academic and socioeconomic scholarships through a committee; there is a sibling discount policy of 10% for the third enrolled sibling and 15% for the fourth, applied to each monthly tuition. - School-store purchases (PE gear, extra materials, special activity fees) and certain extracurricular or tournament-related costs are paid separately; specific prices for these items are not published on the public pages.
Refunds and cancellation
- No public refund, cancellation, or tuition-credit policy was located on the school's Admissions or FAQ pages. If a formal refund policy exists, its numeric or procedural details were not published on the publicly accessible admissions information.
Fee payment options
- The school lists contact points for the Cashier and Admissions but does not publish a detailed list of accepted payment methods (for example, whether credit card, bank transfer, or direct debit are accepted) on the public admissions or FAQ pages. Therefore, payment method options are not published publicly. Contact details for the school's cashier and admissions office are provided by the school.
Summary of findings and next step (brief):
- Publicly available admissions and FAQ pages list the types of fees and policies (admission/enrollment payment that includes insurance and an education protection plan; monthly tuition billing; APF annual fee; uniforms and books from the school store; transportation service; sibling discounts; scholarships) but do not publish numeric tuition, admission, transport, APF, uniform, or refundable-policy amounts for the 2026/27 academic year (nor for 2025/26).
