Application fees
- The school charges a non‑waivable application/registration component as part of its enrolment process, but no fixed public amount for an application fee for the 2026/27 or 2025/26 academic year is published.
Tuition fees by school year (per term / per year)
- There is no publicly posted, itemised tuition schedule by grade for the 2026/27 academic year or for 2025/26 that lists term or annual amounts per year group.
- Directory listings that aggregate school fee information indicate an annual tuition range for the school in broad terms; reported annual ranges that appear in third‑party school directories place yearly fees broadly in the equivalent of approximately USD 7,800 to USD 21,400 (these are aggregated directory figures and not a grade‑by‑grade official schedule). Use these reported ranges only as a general indicator rather than definitive grade‑level charges.
Billing schedule and payment terms
- No publicly published detailed billing calendar or formal payment‑plan terms (for example: number of installments, exact installment due dates, late‑payment penalties) are available. Families should expect standard international school billing practices (advance deposit on acceptance, termly or annual invoicing, and penalties for late payment) unless otherwise specified by the school's finance office.
Boarding fees (if applicable)
- The school operates as a day school; boarding services are not listed as an offered option. There are no published boarding fees.
Other costs or fees
- In addition to tuition and application/registration charges, the school's fee structure historically includes other named components that are commonly charged by the school: an annual development/capital levy, fees for English Language Learner (ELL) support, learning support or special education services, and other levies such as building/capital fees or activity fees. These specific ancillary fee types have been referenced in public reports about the school's billing components. Exact amounts for these additional charges are not publicly posted by grade or year.
- Typical additional costs for families at international schools that may apply here include uniforms, school supplies, extracurricular activity fees, school trips, examination fees (where applicable), and optional transport — however, no definitive published price list for these items for 2026/27 or 2025/26 is publicly available.
Refund information
- The school has handled advance‑fee refunds in the past and has processed refunds related to advance payments in public accounts; this demonstrates that refunds are possible under some circumstances, but official refund terms and conditions (for example refundable vs non‑refundable items, deadlines for withdrawal refunds, or pro‑rata refunds for mid‑term withdrawal) are not published in a public fee schedule. Families should expect that certain items (application fees, confirmation deposits, or non‑tuition levies) are often treated as non‑refundable in many international school policies unless a specific written exception is provided.
Fee payment options
- No public, itemised list of accepted payment methods for school fees (for example: bank transfer, credit card, local bank deposit, online payment portal) is published. The school's finance office should be contacted directly for the current accepted payment channels and instructions.

Summary guidance for parents (facts only)
- The school is a day school and charges tuition plus additional levies (development/capital levy, learning support/ELL fees and similar ancillary charges). Exact per‑grade tuition amounts, the per‑term breakdown, billing calendar, payment methods, and the full refund policy are not publicly posted for the 2026/27 or 2025/26 academic years. Directory sources report a broad annual tuition range of approximately USD 7,800 to USD 21,400, but no official grade‑level schedule is available in the public domain.
