Fee Breakdown

Fees
Application fees
- An application fee is required when submitting an application form; the form is completed and submitted to the School Cashier with the application payment.

Registration / enrolment fees
- A registration (enrolment) fee is charged after an applicant is approved for admission and entered on the school register. This registration fee is non-refundable.

Tuition fees (structure and how they are billed)
- Tuition is charged on an annual basis and for convenience split into three termly accounts (three installments per year). Fees for each term are payable in advance.
- The school communicates the specific tuition amounts for each year group to parents/guardians before the beginning of each academic year; the amounts themselves are not published in the school regulations.

Billing schedule and payment terms
- Each term's fees must be paid in advance, at the latest one week before the first day of the term for which they are due.
- A student will not be allowed into class or permitted to sit internal or external examinations if fees have not been paid in full by the deadline. Academic records, reports and certificates will be withheld until accounts are fully settled.
- If fees remain unpaid after exclusion from class for two weeks, the student will be removed from the school register; re-admission requires a new application.
- To withdraw a student a minimum of one term's notice is required; if notice is received after a term has commenced, fees for the remainder of that term remain payable. No reductions or refunds are made for withdrawal, dismissal or absence.

Boarding fees
- The school's published materials describe Nursery, Primary and Secondary provision and do not publish any boarding program or boarding fee schedule. The school operates as a day school in the publicly available descriptions.

Other costs and fees (uniforms, transport, exams, supplies, trips)
- Uniform: Students must wear the school uniform specified in the published uniform specifications; costs for uniforms are the responsibility of parents/guardians. Uniform specifications are published as downloadable documents.
- Transport: A transport fee is charged separately from tuition and must be paid before the start of the term. Transport fees are treated as non-refundable.
- Books, exam fees, school supplies, field trips and other school-related activities incur additional charges which are payable in addition to tuition; these are billed or communicated separately. Cambridge examination registrations for IGCSE and GCE candidates are arranged and the school publishes examination registration activity, indicating exam-related charges apply.

Refund information
- Application fees, registration fees, tuition fees and transport fees are non-refundable. No reductions or refunds are made for withdrawal, dismissal or absence; parents/guardians remain financially committed to fees for each term once admission or re-admission is accepted.

Fee payment options and banking details
- The school accepts fee payments into school accounts held at CRDB Bank; parents are instructed to pay transport fees and school fees one week before the commencement of the term into the specified CRDB accounts. The newsletter lists the school CRDB account numbers for the different units.
- Application submission and application fee payment are handled at the School Cashier's office, indicating in-person cashier payment is an accepted method for application-stage payments.
- There is no published information in the school's publicly available documents about credit-card, online card portal or other card-payment options; the published payment references are bank account deposits and cashier payments.

Brief summary of limits to this overview
- The school's regulations and recent newsletters clearly set out the fee policies, billing schedule, refund rules, payment accounts and the existence of application/registration/transport charges. However, a public numeric fee schedule showing the specific tuition amounts per year group and the exact per-term sums for the 2026/27 or 2025/26 academic year is not published in the materials available in the school regulations, newsletter and admissions pages used for this overview. For the items above that list policies, timelines and bank-account instructions, see the cited school regulations and newsletter documents.
