Per‑term detail and billing frequency
- The published fee schedule lists the amounts as annual charges by year group and identifies the registration and assessment amounts as one‑time charges. The publicly published fee schedule does not provide a per‑term numerical breakdown or a fixed instalment timetable in the fee document itself. Parents receive and make payments through the school Parent Portal; invoicing and the specific billing instalments are delivered through that payment system.
Billing schedule and payment terms
- Payments are handled through the Parent Portal payment integration (Mograsys Parent Portal). The portal is used to select the payment type, complete the online payment and download the official receipt. The payment instructions specify using Google Chrome on a laptop/desktop and completing each student's payment separately. The fee document itself presents annual amounts; the school issues invoices and receipts through the Parent Portal. Late‑payment penalties or formal instalment deadlines are not published in the public fee schedule.
Boarding fees
- Boarding is not listed among the school facilities or in the published fee schedule; no boarding fees are published. The school's facilities and admissions materials list day‑school sections and transport but do not publish boarding/hostel charges.
Other costs and charges (uniforms, books, supplies, extra activities)
- Uniforms: The school specifies an authorised uniform supplier and gives the supplier location; uniform costs are not published in the fee schedule. Parents should expect separate charges for uniforms and for any textbooks or stationery as required.
- Extracurricular or activity charges: The published fee table does not list recurring activity fees beyond the tuition, registration and assessment charges. Any additional fees for clubs, special trips or optional services would be invoiced separately through the Parent Portal or school circulars (not itemised in the public fee schedule).
Refund information
- The published fee schedule lists which items are one‑time (registration and assessment) but does not include a public, itemised refund policy in the fee document itself. No specific refund terms or refund schedule are published in the publicly available fee document or the online payment instructions.
Fee payment options and receipt
- Online payment: Payments are processed via the Parent Portal payment gateway integrated into the Mograsys Parent Portal. The instructions describe the online payment flow, the need to use the portal to select payment type and download the receipt after a successful transaction. The portal uses a payment gateway flow that requires OTP confirmation.
- Other payment methods: the public fee documents and online payment instruction focus on the Parent Portal gateway; no separate, detailed list of alternate payment channels (bank transfer details or in‑person cashier procedures) is published in the fee document itself.
Official approval
- The fee schedule is published as a Ministry‑approved fees structure for the academic year 2025–2026 and presents the annual figures above.
