Fees
Application fees

- No published application or registration fee amounts are available for Lyceum International School — Katunayake for the 2026/27 academic year. No numeric application-fee schedule is published for 2025/26 either.

Tuition fees by year group (per term / per year)

- No published tuition-fee figures are available for any year group (Pre‑Primary, Grade 1 or higher) at the Katunayake branch for the 2026/27 academic year. No numeric tuition schedule is published for 2025/26 on the publicly available branch or admissions information. Therefore exact per‑term or per‑year tuition amounts cannot be provided here.

Billing schedule and payment terms

- The school's public branch and admissions pages do not publish a detailed billing schedule or formal payment-terms (for example: term dates for invoicing, deadlines, penalties for late payment, or instalment options). Parents should assume specific billing schedules and payment-terms are provided directly by the school at the time of offer or enrolment.

Boarding fees (if applicable)

- The Katunayake branch operates as an early-years/daycare and primary day school (Daycare to Grade 1 at opening) and lists day facilities; there is no indication that residential boarding is offered at the Katunayake branch. Boarding fees are therefore not applicable for Katunayake.

Other costs and typical additional fees

- No published amounts are available for other common costs such as uniforms, books, exercise books, school supplies, transport (bus) charges, co‑curricular or examination levies for the Katunayake branch for 2026/27 or 2025/26. No public schedule for these ancillary charges is available.

Refund information

- No published refund policy or specific refund amounts (for withdrawal, cancellation of admission, or fee refunds) is available on the publicly accessible branch or admissions information for Katunayake. Refund terms are not published and would be provided by the school in the formal fee agreement or offer letter.

Fee payment options

- There are no published, branch‑level details listing accepted payment methods (for example: bank transfer, credit/debit card, online payment gateway, cash) for Katunayake. The school's admissions contact details are published for parents to request the official fee schedule and payment methods.

Contact for the official fee schedule and billing terms

- Phone: +94 117 385 000. Email: student_admissions@lyceum.lk. Use these contact channels to request the Katunayake branch fee schedule, the formal fee agreement, payment-method details, billing calendar, and any applicable refund policy.

Summary of findings and limitation

- A review of the school's publicly available branch and admissions pages (Katunayake branch and central admissions information) did not find any published numeric fee schedules, fee tables, or formal payment/refund terms for the 2026/27 academic year; no published fee figures for 2025/26 were found on those pages either. Because the school does not publish numeric fees or a public fee schedule on those pages, exact amounts per application, per term, per year group, or for ancillary charges cannot be provided here. Parents should request the official fee schedule and written fee agreement directly from the school using the contact details above.
