Invoices are issued in the name of the legal guardians. - Due dates and enforceability: amounts become due at each term arrival; failure to pay triggers reminders, possible suspension from classes and recovery procedures; persistent non‑payment can lead to exclusion and cancellation of re‑registration. - Re‑registration: re‑registration is only confirmed after settlement of any outstanding invoices for the current year (all terms and any ancillary charges).
Boarding (internat)
- Not applicable — published materials and the Groupement's financial/regulatory documents for Casablanca–Mohammedia do not include an internat for Collège Anatole France. No boarding fee is listed.
Other costs and fees
- Uniforms: a school uniform was introduced and parents were asked to purchase uniforms for the 2025 intake; published pricing for uniform packs reported two options — a 12‑item pack for MAD 1,490 and a 19‑item pack for MAD 2,590 (individual items also available). Uniform purchase timing and requirements were communicated to families. - Ancillary charges that may be invoiced in addition to tuition: school meals (demi‑pension / canteen), daycare/extended care, school trips and class trips, exam/registration fees for external examinations, individual accident / civil liability insurance, textbooks or material packs, and any optional extracurricular activities. These are treated as rights annexes and billed separately when applicable. - Sibling reductions and exemptions: for the DPI (first‑registration fee) there is an abatement — 50% for the 2nd child and full exemption from the 3rd child onward when registrations are simultaneous; local staff rules may grant specific exemptions under contract.
Refund and adjustment rules
- DPI: the first‑registration fee (DPI) is not refundable. - Tuition adjustments on entry/exit: when a pupil arrives or departs during the school year, the month in which attendance begins or ends is due in full (calculation basis: one‑tenth of the annual fee per month). Exceptional pro‑rata or remissions are allowed only in specific circumstances (long‑term medical absence, approved cases for pupils with disabilities, or other exceptional decisions). - Bursary adjustments: where a later award of an AEFE/consular school bursary changes the family's contribution, any resulting over‑payment will be reimbursed or offset against outstanding sums for the current year according to the financial rules.
Accepted payment methods and practical notes
- Payment methods accepted by the Groupement's accounting office include: bank cheque to the Agent comptable, card payments on site or online, automatic debit (by request), cash deposit, or bank transfer (virements in euros are converted at the official chancellerie exchange rate on the date of valorization). The agent comptable may require specific payment methods where incidents occur. - In the event of payment incidents (returned checks, failed direct debits), the school may demand certified payment methods and reserve the right to pursue recovery actions; associated recovery costs are borne by the debtor.
