Fee details

Fee details Application / Registration fee - A registration payment is required to confirm a place. The school's registration documents show a registration check of €3,000 required at enrollment; another published tuition note references a registration payment of €2,500 for an alternate payment option. Tuition fees by year group (annual amounts and common optional services) - Kindergarten (Soult campus) - One-time annual payment: €12,350. - Annual total if using the 3-installment option: €13,000. - Lunch: €2,000 (annual). - Educational daycare / after-school (16:30–18:00): €2,000 (annual). - Optional "Bilingual Wednesdays" program (11:30–18:00): €3,500 (annual). - Primary (Soult campus) - One-time annual payment: €12,350. - Annual total if using the 3-installment option: €13,000. - Lunch: €2,000 (annual). - Supervised study / after-school (16:30–18:00): €2,000 (annual). - Optional "Bilingual Wednesdays" program (11:30–18:00): €3,500 (annual). - Middle School (Montmorency campus) - One-time annual payment: €12,825. - Annual total if using the 3-installment option: €13,500. - Lunch box (note: applies to certain grades): €1,000 (annual). - Study hall / supervised study (17:00–18:00): €1,000 (annual) as stated in the school's enrollment document. - High School (Montmorency campus) - One-time annual payment: €12,825. - Annual total if using the 3-installment option: €13,500. - No standard half‑board or study‑hall rates are listed for High School in the published enrollment form; the school notes that enrollment in the High School Diploma (dual-diploma) program may incur additional fees. Billing schedule and payment terms - Method 1 (single payment): One-time payment due before September 1st; paying in one instalment qualifies for a 5% reduction on the tuition amount. - Method 2 (registration deposit + instalments): A registration check (the enrollment documents state €3,000) is required at registration and the remaining amounts are collected across scheduled payments (the enrollment documents list payment dates as August 15, November 15 and February 15). Registration is definitive only after the school receives the registration payment. Registrants are required to pay for the entire school year even in case of cancellation. Boarding - The school does not publish boarding (full‑board) services or boarding fees. Published fees refer to lunch / half‑board or lunch‑box options and after‑school study; no residential boarding fee schedule is provided. Other costs and recurring extras - Uniform: the school provides a coat‑uniform for pupils, but no purchase price is listed in the enrollment documents. - School supplies and back‑to‑school packs are referenced in the school's materials (separate supply lists exist); individual supply costs are not listed in the fee tables. - Optional programs and their annual fees found in enrollment materials: - Bilingual Wednesdays (Kindergarten & Primary): €3,500 per year. - Middle‑school lunch box: €1,000 per year. - After‑school study / daycare (varies by level): €1,000–€2,000 per year as listed above by level. Refund policy and cancellation - Enrollment is confirmed when the registration payment is received. The school's enrollment documents state that registrants must pay for the entire school year even in the case of cancellation, indicating that tuition for the year remains payable after cancellation. Fee payment options / accepted instruments - The published enrollment documents specify the payment process using checks (the registration/check amounts and scheduled check dates are listed). No credit‑card or bank‑transfer payment instructions are specified in the published fee documents. Brief notes about items not fully specified in published materials - The published documents give the annual totals for each level and list payment dates and the registration check amount, but do not itemize the per‑installment monetary breakdown for the three‑installment option (i.e., exact amounts for each scheduled instalment are not shown). - There is an inconsistency between two published statements regarding the registration payment: some published notes reference a registration payment of €2,500 for an alternate payment option while the enrollment forms state a registration check of €3,000. Additionally, one published summary shows a supervised‑study fee of €2,000 for certain levels while the detailed enrollment form lists a study‑hall fee of €1,000 for Middle School; these discrepancies appear between the tuition summary and the enrollment PDFs. These points are taken from the school's published tuition summary and from the level‑specific enrollment documents.

Initial Application: To begin the process, parents must complete a pre-registration form online through the school's Eduka platform. This step creates a family account where you can track the status of your application. Applications are reviewed in the order they are submitted. 2.

A non-refundable application fee of €300 is required at this stage to process the file. If any documentation is missing, the admissions team will request it before moving forward. 3. Academic Review and Assessment: The school evaluates the student's academic history to ensure they can access the curriculum.

This ensures the student's level aligns with the school's standard requirements. 4. Family Interview: If the application is strong and there are potential vacancies, the school will invite the family for a meeting. This allows the school to assess the student's maturity, conduct, and suitability for the program. It also provides an opportunity for parents to ask questions and familiarize themselves with the campus. 5. Offer and Registration: When a place is offered, parents must formally accept it by returning the required enrolment forms. To secure the spot, families must pay a registration fee of between €900 and €1,000, along with an advance deposit toward the first term's tuition.
