Fees
Application / registration fees
- No published, itemised application or matriculation fee for tuition is available publicly for the current academic year.
Tuition fees by school year (per term / per year)
- The school does not publish a public schedule of tuition fees by year group or by term for the current academic year, so specific per-term or per-year figures are not available.
Billing schedule and payment terms (what is available)
- Extracurricular activities are billed by monthly bank receipt (direct debit) for the full monthly amount of the chosen activities. Families are required to communicate cancellations before the 25th of the month for changes to take effect the following month. - The school's internal regulations (rules of organisation and operation) set out administrative processes for pre‑registration, enrolment and management of payments and accounts, but they do not publish a public tuition billing schedule (terms such as number of instalments or exact dates are not listed there as public fee figures).
Boarding fees
- The school operates as a day school and does not offer boarding; there are no boarding fees. Provision described for the school covers day services such as mid‑day meals and supervised before/after school care rather than residential provision.
Other costs and fees (published examples)
- Extracurricular activity monthly prices (sample): - 1 activity per week (1.5 h/session): EUR 44 per month. - 2 activities per week: EUR 76 per month. - 3 activities per week: EUR 99 per month. - Guitar/Piano (30 min/session): EUR 75 per month. - ROBOTIX (1 h/session): EUR 65 per month plus a one‑off registration/matrícula fee of EUR 30. - Mid‑day meal / school lunch is provided as a managed service (the centre supervises and sends monthly menus), but a public price list for the school meal service is not published. - The extracurricular policy states that the school will not refund or credit payments for individual sessions missed by a pupil; no reimbursements are made for absences from extra activities. - No public schedule for uniform costs, mandatory materials fees, subject‑specific fees, exam fees or annual/yearly tuition extras is published.
Refunds and withdrawal terms
- For extracurricular activities: missed sessions are not refunded or credited; cancellations must be communicated by the family before the 25th of the month and take effect from the 1st of the following month. - For standard tuition (enrolment / withdrawal / refunds): the school's rules cover admission and administrative procedures including registration and withdrawal processes, but no public, itemised tuition refund table or standardised refund percentages for early withdrawal is published.
Fee payment options
- Extracurricular activities are explicitly billed via monthly bank receipts (direct debit). - No public, itemised statement listing accepted payment methods for tuition (for example: credit card, bank transfer, direct debit options for tuition) is published. The school's administration handles payments and accounts as part of its administrative responsibilities.
Summary of findings and gaps:
- Published, itemised tuition figures by year group or per term are not publicly available for the current academic year; the school does not make its tuition schedule public. - Published fee information is available for extracurricular activities (monthly prices, a Robotix registration fee, monthly bank billing and cancellation deadlines) and for operational items (mid‑day meal service is provided) but not for standard tuition instalments, application or matriculation fees, uniform costs, or tuition refund amounts.
If you require a fee record that must list per‑year and per‑term tuition amounts, those tuition figures are not published publicly in the school's publicly available documents for the current academic year and therefore cannot be provided here.
