Fee Breakdown

Fees

Application fee

- NGN 20,000 (non‑refundable) charged for each new application.

Tuition fees by year group (per term and annual estimate)

- The school publishes tuition as a per‑term charge with typical per‑term ranges reported across levels as approximately NGN 751,000 – NGN 1,200,000 per term. Use of three terms per academic session means a straightforward annual tuition estimate is three times the per‑term amount (for example, NGN 2,253,000 – NGN 3,600,000 per year depending on level and boarding/day status).

- Specific per‑year‑group line items (Pre‑School / Nursery / Primary / Lower Secondary / IGCSE / A‑Level) are not published in a single public fee table; instead tuition is presented as the termly range above.

Billing schedule and payment terms

- The academic year runs on three terms. Tuition and boarding fees are billed on a termly basis and are normally payable in three instalments (one instalment per term).

- A student who joins during a term may be charged a full term's fee if joining before mid‑term; where advertised, partial reductions for late entry have been applied historically (details are handled at enrolment). Late payment provisions and surcharges have been applied in the school's published admission/fee notes.

Boarding fees (where applicable)

- Boarding places are available. The overall cost for boarding students increases the annual session total; public summaries and fee lists published by third parties show full‑boarding totals in the region of approximately NGN 3,600,000 per academic session (this figure represents the combined tuition + boarding package reported for boarding students).

Other mandatory or regular fees and charges

- One‑time Capital Development Levy (acceptance/holding fee): charged on acceptance of a place (a one‑off, non‑refundable levy is applied).

- Medical screening and compulsory medical insurance: a medical screening requirement and a termly medical insurance deposit/charge is applied per student.

- School uniform fee: uniforms are charged (new entrants typically receive a set as part of enrolment under past policies; replacement uniforms are chargeable). Textbooks, examination entry fees and other learning resources are charged separately.

- Termly pocket‑money deposit: a compulsory pocket‑money deposit for day and boarding students has been listed in school guidance (example amount reported historically: NGN 15,000 per term).

- External examination fees (Cambridge/Edexcel/IGCSE/A‑Level) are invoiced in addition to tuition when applicable.

Refunds and notice on withdrawal

- A written term's notice is required before withdrawing a student. If the required notice is not given, a charge in lieu of notice is applied (historically a fixed sum has been stated). Once a term has commenced, that term's fee is not refundable.

Fee payment options

- Payments can be made by bank deposit or bank transfer to the school's designated account(s). Historically parents were able to pay at designated bank branches (examples published include GTBank and similar services) and by direct bank transfer; invoices may be issued in NGN or in foreign currency where applicable. Parents should use the school's published banking details when making payments.

Summary of findings and limitations

- Publicly accessible information discloses the main fee categories (application fee, tuition per term, capital levy, medical insurance, uniform, exam and textbook charges, boarding supplement) and reports a common per‑term tuition range of roughly NGN 751,000–NGN 1,200,000 with boarding total annual packages commonly quoted around NGN 3,600,000. The school's materials and contemporary third‑party summaries were used to compile these figures. Detailed line‑by‑line fee tables broken down by every single year group (exact per‑term charge for Pre‑Nursery, Nursery, Year 1, Year 2 … Year 13) were not available in a single published fee table at the time of review; the figures above reflect the termly and annual ranges and the recurring mandatory items that are published or commonly reported.
