Billing schedule and payment terms

- Tuition billing options: (a) three instalments (pro‑rata split covering 4 / 3 / 3 months) with invoice/payment windows 01.10.2025–20.10.2025, 01.01.2026–20.01.2026 and 01.04.2026–20.04.2026; (b) monthly direct‑debit (10 monthly payments); or (c) single annual invoice due in August (payment deadline 31 August 2025) with a 1% tuition discount for that single payment.

- Absences (excused or unexcused) do not entitle to tuition or service refunds or reductions. Withdrawal from the school contract or enrolment during the school year does not entitle to refund of already paid amounts and obliges payment of due or remaining instalments; pro‑rata tuition may be charged for students admitted after the school year has started. The Board reserves the right to adjust fees and conditions if required.

Refund and cancellation terms (high‑level)

- The pre‑registration fee (EUR 355.00) is refundable only if the school does not offer a place. The registration fee portion (EUR 645.00) is not refundable upon withdrawal. Vorkurs fees are non‑refundable. Absences and mid‑year withdrawal do not entitle to refunds of tuition already paid; students registered at the school at the start of the school year are liable for the full year's fee unless otherwise specified.

Late payment and administrative charges

- A first reminder after a missed payment incurs a late penalty of EUR 30.00 per overdue invoice. A second reminder (20 days after the payment deadline) incurs an additional EUR 100.00 per overdue invoice. Failed direct‑debit entries incur an administrative charge of EUR 15.00; repeated failed direct‑debits can result in automatic change to the three‑instalment payment schedule. Outstanding tuition may lead to exclusion from school attendance and withholding of reports or re‑registration until accounts are settled.

Boarding / residential provision

- The school's published fees and services for 2025/26 list day‑school tuition and ancillary services (meals, after‑school care, transport, digital fees, language integration courses). No boarding/internat fees or boarding provision are listed in the 2025/26 fee schedule.

Accepted payment methods and account details

- Payment methods offered: direct debit (Lastschrift) via the monthly 10‑month option; payment at an ATM within the deadlines; or bank transfer. For bank transfer, the school provides an IBAN and BIC/SWIFT for EUR payments (example IBAN: PT50 0033 0000 0000 90576377; SWIFT/BIC: GENODED1BBE). Payers are asked to send proof of transfer to the school cashier e‑mail address for reconciliation.

Other practical notes on charges

- Class trip and excursion payments, AGs (extracurricular groups) and some service charges are invoiced separately according to the school's invoicing calendar; unpaid trip fees may attract administrative charges if not settled before departure. Price changes during the school year may be applied by the school's board if necessary.
