Fees

Annual tuition at Shanghai Qingpu World Foreign Language Kindergarten ranges from RMB 160,000 to RMB 180,000 for 2026/27.

Application fees
- No fixed application or non-refundable registration fee is publicly listed on the school's admissions pages; detailed enrolment procedures are published through the school's admissions channels.

Tuition fees (detailed by year group and billing unit)
- Nursery (托班): RMB 18,000 per month.
- Kindergarten age groups (小班 / 中班 / 大班): RMB 16,000 per month (the school's previously published monthly rate for these age groups).
- Regulatory cap (district limit): the district's price approval for the 2026 academic year sets the maximum allowable monthly care/education fee for Shanghai Qingpu World Foreign Language Kindergarten at RMB 18,000 per student (this is the legally approved upper limit schools may charge; the school's actual monthly charge may be at or below this cap).

Per-term and per-academic-year calculations (how to interpret the monthly fee for term/year totals)
- The kindergarten's core care/education fee is billed and collected on a monthly basis; kindergarten fees are not normally charged on a per-term basis by the school. Multiply the monthly rate by the number of months the child is enrolled in the term or academic year to obtain term or annual totals. The Shanghai municipal rules require that care/education fees be charged monthly and prohibit cross-month prepayment. Example calculations (simple multiplication):
- Nursery (RMB 18,000/month): one 5-month term = RMB 90,000; a 10-month academic year = RMB 180,000.
- Kindergarten classes (RMB 16,000/month): one 5-month term = RMB 80,000; a 10-month academic year = RMB 160,000.

Billing schedule and payment terms
- Billing unit: monthly. Fees for care/education (保育教育费) are charged per calendar month and may not be pre-collected across months. Partial-month attendance is prorated under municipal rules (examples: if actual in-park days are 5 days or fewer, charge for actual days; if more than 5 days but less than half the month's legal working days, charge half-month; if at least half, charge a full month). Adjustments to published fee levels are implemented from the start of a new academic year.
- Timing and method of invoicing: the school issues fee notices through its admissions/administration channels; families should expect monthly invoicing consistent with municipal guidance.

Boarding / accommodation fees
- Boarding is not provided for the kindergarten; the program is a full-day kindergarten with an 8-hour daily schedule and no boarding charges are listed.

Other costs and typical additional fees
- Meals and snacks: the kindergarten operates an on-site dining program with professional catering/nutrition arrangements; meal and snack fees are handled as part of monthly charges or as a separately itemized monthly charge per municipal rules for service fees. Exact meal-price amounts are not published on the school's public admissions pages.
- Uniforms: the school provides seasonal uniforms (spring, summer, autumn sportswear and special items are shown on the school pages). Uniform prices are not publicly listed.
- Materials, activity and excursion charges: course materials, some activity fees or special-event costs may be settled at the end of a term or when incurred, consistent with local guidance; specific per-item amounts are not publicly listed.

Refunds and proration
- Proration rules: municipal regulations specify how monthly care/education fees are prorated when attendance is for part of a month (actual days, half-month, or full-month thresholds as described above). Other refundable/settlement items (for example materials or activity fees) are typically reconciled at term end per local practice. Families are entitled to the statutory proration described by municipal regulation.

Fee payment options and contact for payment arrangements
- The school's public pages do not list a definitive menu of accepted payment methods (credit card, online portal, bank transfer). For specific accepted payment channels and invoicing details, contact the school's admissions office by phone or email: +86-21-39886958 (ext. 8001) or qpwflk@wfl-ischool.cn.

Notes relevant to these figures (presented as factual fee information)
- The school's published monthly care/education rates and the district's approved maximum monthly charges determine the allowable range of kindergarten fees; parents should expect monthly invoicing and statutory proration rules to be applied.
