Fees
Application fees - No public, fixed application or annual tuition schedule is published for general enrolment; specific application or registration fees are not listed online and must be obtained directly from the admissions office. - Fees for external tests and one-off services that are published: Oxford Test of English (OTE) — Full test: €85; individual components (Listening, Speaking, Reading, Writing): €39 each. Payment for these tests is by bank transfer to the school's IBAN as specified on the test registration form.
Tuition fees by year group (per term / per year) - The school does not publish a public, itemised tuition table by year group or per-term/per-year instalments; the standard published material does not include per-year tuition amounts for Infant, Primary, ESO or Bachillerato. Exact tuition figures and term instalment options must be requested from the admissions or finance office. - Published programme fees for certain international exchange / immersion programmes are given where applicable (examples): J‑1 BASIC Programme (Aug–Jun) €14,589; J‑1 COLEGIOS 3A Programme (Aug–Jun) €17,985; F‑1 Programme (Aug–Jun) €31,460 — these are programme-specific amounts and not the regular school tuition for day pupils.
Billing schedule and payment terms - Billing frequency and available payment plans for core tuition are set individually by the school; a public, fixed timetable of instalments for core tuition is not published. For many school services and activities, monthly billing by direct debit (domiciliación bancaria) is used. - For extra-curricular activities such as swimming: monthly charges apply; if a student joins after a month has started, the month is charged in full; cancellations for these activities must be notified within the stated window (for swimming: notify between the 1st and 15th of the final month in which you wish to cancel). Payment for activities is by direct debit unless otherwise stated. - The school's general conditions state that online card payments are processed over a secure SSL connection; specific payment deadlines, instalment schedules and penalties for late payment are governed by the school's registration and billing rules.
Boarding fees (if applicable) - Boarding is not offered as a standard service at this campus. The school's listed services include school lunch (comedor), bus route (ruta), extra-curricular activities and extended hours, with no boarding or residential provision described. Therefore boarding fees are not applicable.
Other costs and fees (uniform, books, meals, transport, extras) - School meals (comedor): the school operates a school lunch service; published menu documents exist for the school meal offering. Specific meal prices are set for the service but are not published as a universal tuition line item on the general admissions pages. - School transport (ruta): a bus service is provided; route service is listed as a billable school service and pricing details are managed by the school. - Books and classroom materials: the school supplies textbooks and digital licences in many cases and publishes book lists with individual prices for specific years/levels (example: a sample 2022–23 book list with prices and notes about digital licences and materials). Expect a separate charge for textbooks, reading books and school-supplied materials when applicable. - Extra-curricular activities and sports: many activities have separate monthly fees (example — swimming prices for 2024–25: from €25/month to €67/month depending on frequency and age group). These activities are billed separately from core tuition and are typically charged monthly by direct debit. - Uniforms and school-specific clothing: acquisition of school clothing or items of exclusive-use uniform is treated as an additional family cost; the school references exclusive-use clothing as deductible for certain tax purposes but does not publish a consolidated uniform price list in the general admissions pages.
Refund information - Refund and cancellation conditions differ by service: for extra-curricular activities (for example, swimming), joining mid-month does not generate a pro‑rata refund for that month and cancellations must follow the activity's stated notice period (e.g., notify between the 1st and 15th of the final month). - The school's general conditions of administration specify that payment and commercial operations are subject to the centre's contractual terms and that online payments are processed securely; specific refund rules for core tuition, deposit returns, or cancellations of enrollment are governed by the school's registration/matriculation terms and are applied according to those contractual conditions. These specific refund terms for core tuition are not published as a single public table and must be confirmed with the school's admissions/finance office.
Fee payment options - Bank transfer: the school accepts bank transfers and provides an IBAN for payments (example: IBAN shown for Oxford Test registrations). - Direct debit (domiciliación bancaria): used for recurring charges for activities and some services. - Credit/debit card: the school's conditions state that card payments are processed over a secure SSL connection for online transactions; card acceptance for all fee types is governed by the school's payment procedures.
Practical summary for parents (factual action points) - Core tuition: no public per-year or per-term tuition table is published; obtain the exact per-year and per-term tuition figures, available instalment plans, and any sibling or early-payment discounts directly from the school's admissions or finance office. - Expect additional monthly charges for optional services (meals, transport, activities) and separate costs for textbooks and school-supplied materials; activity-specific prices and notice periods are published for those services where applicable. - Payment methods in regular use include bank transfer, direct debit and secure online card payments; specific payment deadlines, billing schedule and refund rules are set in the school's registration terms.
