Per-term and annual values (derived from the published monthly amounts)
- The school publishes tuition as a monthly figure. The following calculated values are provided for convenience:
- Annual (12 months): multiply the monthly amount × 12. Examples:
- KG (AED 360/month) — Annual (12 months): AED 4,320.
- Grade XI/XII (AED 847/month) — Annual (12 months): AED 10,164.
- Annual (10 months): multiply the monthly amount × 10 (commonly used by some local schools where fees are not charged during summer months). Examples:
- KG (AED 360/month) — Annual (10 months): AED 3,600.
- Grade XI/XII (AED 847/month) — Annual (10 months): AED 8,470.
- Per-term (three equal terms) when the annual total is split into three equal instalments:
- If annual = 12 months: per term = monthly × 4. Examples:
- KG: AED 1,440 per term (12‑month basis).
- Grade XI/XII: AED 3,388 per term (12‑month basis).
- If annual = 10 months: per term = (monthly × 10) ÷ 3 (≈ monthly × 3.3333). Examples:
- KG: AED 1,200 per term (10‑month basis).
- Grade XI/XII: AED 2,823.33 per term (10‑month basis, rounded to 2 decimals).

Billing schedule and payment terms
- Tuition amounts are published as monthly fees in AED and a revised fee schedule was issued with effect from April 2026. The school materials present fees as monthly figures; specific published billing deadlines, instalment plans, or detailed payment-term dates are not listed in the publicly posted fee circulars.

Boarding / hostel fees
- No boarding or hostel facilities or boarding fees are listed in the school's publicly available materials. Boarding fees are therefore not applicable as a published item.

- No specific payment channels (bank account numbers, named payment gateway, credit-card providers or mobile‑payment partner) are published in the fee schedule or admission form. The school's accounts office and general contact telephone and email are provided for fee administration enquiries. Parents should use the school's accounts office contact details for payment processing.

Notes
- All tuition figures above are presented in AED and the monthly amounts are those published in the school's 2026 fee circular.

The published monthly fee table and the April 2026 revised fee circular are the basis for the amounts shown.
