Per-term amounts

- The published schedule lists annual tuition amounts by class (see above). No per-term breakdown or fixed number of instalments is published with those amounts; therefore no verified per-term figures can be supplied.

Billing schedule and payment terms

- No published billing schedule, payment due dates, or standard instalment plan is available in the published fee information. There is no publicly available statement of penalties for late payment, required deposits, or the exact timing of invoices.

Boarding fees (internat)

- No boarding (internat) provision or boarding fees are published for this establishment; boarding fees are therefore not applicable as no boarding service is listed.

Other costs and fees (examples and unspecified amounts)

- The published fee information explicitly states that the annual tuition does not cover various additional costs. Examples of additional costs mentioned include:
- transport (school bus/transportation).
- stationery and school supplies.
- insurance.
- administrative/file-processing fees (frais de dossier).
- costs specific to certain activities or events (school trips, extracurricular activities, exams, etc.).
- No published amounts are available for uniforms, transport, insurance, or activity-specific fees.

Refund information

- No published refund policy or specific rules on reimbursement in the event of withdrawal, mid-year departure, or cancellation is provided in the publicly available fee document.

Fee payment options

- No published list of accepted payment methods (bank transfer, credit card, online payment platforms, direct debit, etc.) is provided in the available fee information.

Brief note on data coverage

- The only detailed published tuition schedule located is an annual fee schedule titled for the 2023–2024 academic year; no newer (2025–2026 or 2026–2027) published tuition schedule, detailed billing timetable, payment-method statement, boarding tariffs, uniform costs, or refund policy was found in the publicly available documents reviewed. As a result, annual tuition figures above reflect the published schedule and the other items are reported as not published.

Country affiliation

Lebanon

School day structure

Mon–Fri 8:00 AM – 2:00 PM

Bus service

Bus service is available. Bus rules include: students registered by bus ride the bus; cannot switch buses; follow the seating plan; morning and afternoon timing; no food on the bus; students must be dropped at their designated home; server supervision and parent communication procedures are in place.

Application fees
- No published single, school-wide application fee amount for the 2026/27 academic year is available in the school's public materials. Evidence of a small administrative/registration table is present in a generic pricing page that lists sample registration charges by age (for very young children) but it does not present a formal K–12 application or registration charge.

Tuition fees by year group (per term / per year)
- There is no published, itemized tuition schedule showing per-term or per-year fees by year group (KG, primary, middle, high / Grade levels) for the 2026/27 academic year or for 2025/26 in the school's public materials. No complete K–12 tuition table, per-term amounts, or grade-band pricing is available.

Billing schedule and payment terms
- No published billing schedule (for example: number of installments, due dates, late-payment penalties) or formal payment terms for the academic year are available in the school's public materials. A placeholder “Payment information” section appears on a rates/pricing page but contains no formal K–12 billing schedule or contract terms.

Boarding fees (if applicable)
- No boarding provision or boarding fees are published. The school is described with two day-branches (Tyre — Al Hosh and Khalde) and campus facilities; there is no published boarding programme or boarding fee schedule.

Other costs and typical additional charges (uniform, transport, meals, activities, external exam or IB fees, insurance)
- No comprehensive list of ancillary fees (uniform, transport, meals, extracurricular activity fees, exam/IB registration fees, student insurance) is published in a single fee schedule for 2026/27 or 2025/26. A generic pricing page contains sample daily/weekly/monthly plan amounts and a small administrative registration table for very young ages, but these entries do not constitute a full ancillary-fees schedule for K–12 families.

Refund information
- No published refund policy (refund eligibility, deadlines, how refundable deposits are treated, or how withdrawal affects outstanding installments or refunds) is available in the school's public materials for the requested academic year.

Fee payment options (credit card, bank transfer, cash, online portal)
- No explicit list of accepted payment methods (credit card, bank transfer details, online payment portal, or third-party processors) is published in the available public materials. A generic “Payment information” heading exists on a rates/pricing page but contains no operational payment-method details. Contact phone and email are listed for enquiries.

Summary of findings
- A review of the school's public pages shows no formal, detailed K–12 fee schedule (per-term or per-year by grade) or formal fee policy for the 2026/27 academic year; therefore per-term and per-grade tuition figures, billing timetable, boarding fees, refund rules, and formal payment-method lists cannot be provided from the school's published materials. The only fee-like items presented in public materials are limited, generic sample rates (daily/weekly/monthly) and a small administrative registration table that appear to be non-exhaustive and not a full K–12 tuition policy.
