Fees
Application fees - No specific application, registration or enrollment fee amount is published in the school's public information. Based on review of the school's public information pages, no fixed numeric application fee is available publicly.
Tuition fees by year group (per term / per year) - No public fee schedule listing tuition amounts by year group, per term, or per academic year is published in the school's public materials. Therefore exact tuition figures for Early Years, Primary, Secondary or IB (per term or per year) are not available from the school's publicly accessible information.
Billing schedule and payment terms - The school's public pages do not publish a specific billing schedule, installment plan, or formal payment-terms table for tuition (for example: number of instalments, due dates, or late-payment penalties). Families should assume billing and payment terms are managed by the school's finance office and that a formal schedule will be provided at enrollment. Contact details and secretariat hours are provided for direct enquiries.
Boarding fees (if applicable) - The school operates a student residence (boarding) with shared bedrooms and en suite bathrooms; however, no boarding/boarding‑fee amounts or package details (weekly/monthly/term rates, meals included, deposits) are published publicly. Parents should request the residence fee schedule directly from the school's administration.
Other costs and additional fees - Ancillary services that typically carry additional charges are offered but are not published with prices: school dining (different menu options), transport (school bus routes), extracurricular activities, trips and camps. Examples of purchasable items and activity charges are listed in the school shop (for example: some camps/trips and activity tickets are shown with prices such as €100 for certain camps and small-item charges like €7 for theatre tickets), indicating that these types of extras are billed separately. Uniforms, books and course materials are managed through the school shop and/or the school and may incur separate charges; however, no comprehensive uniform or book-price list for the academic year is published publicly.
Refund information - There is no publicly posted, itemized refund policy for tuition, application fees, boarding fees or ancillary charges in the school's publicly available materials. The school's legal notice and public terms include general legal and website-use disclaimers but do not contain a specific fee-refund schedule. Refund and withdrawal terms are therefore handled by the school's administrative and contractual terms at the time of enrollment.
Fee payment options - The school's online shop accepts payments using Visa, Mastercard and PayPal (secure payment with SSL is indicated for the shop). There is no public, explicit statement of which payment methods are accepted for recurring school tuition (for example, direct bank transfer, standing order, credit card for termly tuition, or online portal payments). For school-fee payments, parents should confirm accepted methods with the school's finance office.
Summary of availability - The school publishes descriptive information about programs, residence, transport and catering and provides phone and email contact and secretariat hours, but it does not publish a public, detailed fee schedule (application fees, tuition per year/term by year group, boarding prices, payment schedule, refund policy) in its publicly accessible pages. For current numeric amounts and formal billing terms for the academic year, contact the school's admissions/finance office directly using the published phone numbers or email.
