Tuition by school year / year-group detail

There is no published breakdown of different amounts by specific year group on the published Portugal fees page.

- Registration Renewal Fee (annual): Payable after 12 months = €500.
- Discounts: Second-child discount = 5% off the total monthly fee; third-child discount = 7.5% off the total monthly fee. Paying 12 months upfront gives a 3% discount on the total yearly fee.
- Additional tuition items: AP course surcharge for American Curriculum = €650 per AP course.
Boarding fees

Fee payment options
- The published Portugal fees page sets fees and billing schedules but does not list accepted payment methods (credit card, bank transfer, standing order, or other payment processors) or detailed payment-instruction steps. No specific payment methods are published on the Portugal fees page.
Applicability to Porto
- The Portugal fees apply to BGA Hubs across Portugal, which explicitly lists Porto among its Hub locations; the Portugal fee schedule is presented as the pricing structure for learners attending a Hub in Portugal (including Porto).
Limitations — brief note on published detail
- The published Portugal fees give one-time admission fees by curriculum, monthly rates (12 payments) by curriculum, the registration renewal fee, discounts, and the AP-course surcharge, but they do not publish a separate, detailed fee schedule by individual school year/grade or a per-term invoice amount. The published schedule also does not specify accepted payment methods or a formal refund policy on the fees page. For clarity: the amounts above are the published one-time and monthly rates and the explicitly stated additional charges and discounts for Portugal Hubs.
