Introduction
Twinbrook International School is a fully accredited, non-denominational Ugandan institution offering Early Years Foundation Stage with a bespoke curriculum. The kindergarten section began in 2014, followed by the Elementary/Primary section in 2016 as a Primary Leaving Examination sitting center, reflecting continuity from early learning through upper primary. The school combines a local learning framework with the Foundation Stage National Curriculum in kindergarten, and uses a competence-based model with ICT integrated in the Elementary/Primary section. The campus serves a diverse, religiously pluralistic community; it promotes critical and innovative thinking while achieving academic success in a safe, trusting environment. Facilities include a dedicated music program with a music room for guitar, piano, drums, vocal training and ballet; strong sports offerings with football, netball, basketball, futsal, and swimming in a semi-Olympic pool plus smaller pools for kindergarten. Co-curricular activities include a bakery and agro-business component, contributing to practical learning and wellbeing for students.

Billing schedule and payment terms - Fees are structured and billed by academic term; entry/functional charges are one‑off payments due on enrolment, while tuition, boarding and transport are charged per term and are payable at the start of each term. Parents obtain a learner payment code from the accounts section to use when making payments.

Refunds and withdrawal - The published fee schedule and requirements document does not set out a specific refund or withdrawal policy in the fee lines provided. Parents should note that some one‑off entry charges (registration/functional fees) are typically non‑recurring; explicit refund terms are not listed in the fee schedule.
Summary of how charges are presented - Charges are shown as: one‑off assessment and functional/entry fees (payable on admission), termly tuition and boarding rates (day and boarding), termly transport rates, and certain one‑off uniform items.
