Tuition fees (per year group and per term)

- Pre‑KG / Foundation stage: Term 1 ~ AED 7,080; Term 2 ~ AED 6,060; Term 3 ~ AED 6,060 — Total annual ≈ AED 20,200.
- KG1–KG2: Term 1 ~ AED 9,000; Term 2 ~ AED 6,300; Term 3 ~ AED 6,300 — Total annual ≈ AED 22,100.

Billing schedule and payment terms

- Fees are normally billed in three equal instalments (three terms) across the academic year. ENS offers a standard three‑instalment payment plan. Non‑payment may lead to suspension, withholding of reports/transfer documentation, or hold on re‑registration after formal warning notices.

- Fee discounts and early‑payment concessions are applied according to the ENS discount policy; discounts apply only to tuition (not to other charges) and are granted under specific conditions (for example when payment deadlines are met or for eligible staff/sibling concessions). To qualify, registration, tuition and educational‑resource fees must be paid within the timelines required for the discount to apply.

Boarding / residential provision

- ENS Sharjah operates as a day campus. There is no published boarding or residential fee for the Sharjah campus. ENS campus documentation and parent handbook list campus contacts and services for day students only.

Other costs and recurring charges

- Educational resources / learning materials: ENS applies an educational‑resource fee that is commonly included in the Term 1 charge; amounts vary by grade (examples for some ENS campuses show educational‑resource charges included in term totals).

- Transport (school bus): School transport is charged separately. Typical transport charges recorded for ENS campuses are approximately AED 5,000/year (routes and exact annual charges depend on pick‑up/drop‑off zones). A transport discount may apply to additional siblings.

- Meals / canteen: Food service is charged separately; sample canteen charges have been published per grade band at certain ENS campuses (amounts vary by campus and menu plan).

- Uniforms, exam fees (IB/AP/SAT/college entrance), extracurricular activities, trips and optional services are additional and billed as required. ENS documents note these categories as separate charges.

Refund and withdrawal rules

- ENS has a published refund policy that applies to tuition and educational‑resource fees. Key points:
- Registration fees are non‑refundable except in very specific early cancellation windows.
- If a student withdraws before the official first day of classes, tuition and educational‑resource fees are refundable after the school retains the non‑refundable registration fee.
- Refunds after the academic year has started are calculated proportionally based on the date of withdrawal and follow a published sliding scale (different schedules apply for different campuses; for Sharjah a time‑of‑withdrawal table is used to calculate the refundable percentage). Refunds are only processed to the original payor and are issued after a completed refund application is received; processing is completed within the school's stated timeframe.

Fee payment options and bank details

- ENS accepts payments by: cash to the campus cashier, cheque payable to "Emirates National Schools", or bank transfer / cash deposit to the ENS campus bank accounts at Union National Bank. Bank account numbers are published for each campus, including the Sharjah campus account. Example: Emirates National Schools, Emirate of Sharjah, Account No. 011095422005 (Union National Bank).

- The school operates standard administrative procedures for invoicing, late‑payment warnings and withholding of services for overdue accounts as set out in the tuition policies.

Summary of practical items to budget for

- One‑off: registration/holding fee (commonly AED 500–1,000).
- Recurring: tuition (three term instalments) by grade band — use the appropriate grade band examples above when preparing totals.
- Recurring extras: transport (~AED 5,000/year typical), meals, uniforms, exam fees and optional activities.
- Refunds: handled under the ENS refund schedule and depend on withdrawal timing; registration fees are generally non‑refundable.
