Fees

Application / Admission fees
- One-off admission / entrance test fee: EUR 200.
- One-off refundable security deposit (held for the duration of the school contract and returned at contract termination): EUR 150.

Tuition (school) fees by year group and billing unit
- The school operates a monthly tuition scheme. A regularly cited baseline monthly tuition figure is approximately EUR 100; a reduced monthly rate for pupils exempt from the learning-material contribution is cited as approximately EUR 80. More detailed, income-based monthly tuition bands have been recorded in public records as follows (monthly): up to EUR 100, up to EUR 150, up to EUR 200, up to EUR 250, up to EUR 300, up to EUR 350, and up to EUR 400 for families not providing income documentation. These bands were applied to establish individual monthly tuition obligations.
- The school applies an income-based sliding scale to determine monthly tuition for families in different income brackets; exact assignment to a bracket determines the monthly amount. The publicly recorded income brackets and corresponding monthly caps include (examples from published tables):
- household income up to ~EUR 29,420 → monthly tuition up to EUR 100,
- up to ~EUR 45,000 → monthly tuition up to EUR 150,
- up to ~EUR 60,000 → monthly tuition up to EUR 200,
- up to ~EUR 75,000 → monthly tuition up to EUR 250,
- up to ~EUR 90,000 → monthly tuition up to EUR 300,
- above ~EUR 90,000 → monthly tuition up to EUR 350,
- without income documentation → monthly tuition noted up to EUR 400.

Sibling and other concessions
- Sibling discounts and fee remission categories are applied. Recorded examples include a second-child tuition reduction of 75% and a third-child reduction of 50% (as applied in the recorded data), plus further reductions or exemptions for school or sponsor employees, single parents with multiple children, holders of a severe-disability ID and families in documented social need.

Billing schedule and payment terms
- Tuition is recorded as a monthly obligation in available public records and is billed on that basis. The refundable security deposit (EUR 150) is held for the duration of the pupil's contract and returned when the contract ends. Specific due dates, late-payment penalties, notice periods, and termination billing rules follow the school enrollment contract terms and the signed agreement between parent/guardian and the school.

Boarding fees (where applicable)
- Boarding accommodation (single and twin rooms) and full-board (four meals per day) are offered for upper secondary / campus pupils; boarding services listed include accommodation and meals, study materials, visa invitation and insurance support, and a cultural and leisure programme. No explicit public boarding-price schedule for the campus boarding option was available in the publicly accessible materials reviewed; boarding is therefore treated as a separately charged package with services as listed.

Other costs and regular additional charges
- Uniform: a school uniform catalogue and ordering system exists; uniform items are procured through that catalogue (prices and full item lists are managed through the uniform portal).
- Extra-curricular activities, trips, language-camp and language-school programmes have separate fee arrangements (these programmes list service packages including accommodation, meals and activities for campus language camps). Parents should expect occasional event- or programme-specific charges (e.g., trips, certificates, summer language camps) that are billed separately from regular tuition.
- Voluntary parental association (Förderverein) membership and donations: the parents' support association publishes suggested annual contribution levels (examples recorded: EUR 20, EUR 50, EUR 100) and provides bank transfer details for payments.

Refunds and security / refund rules
- The one-off security deposit of EUR 150 is refundable upon termination of the school contract (the deposit is held for the whole school-time and returned at contract end). For other fees (tuition, programme fees), standard contract provisions govern refunds on withdrawal or early termination; the security-deposit refund provision is explicitly recorded in the available material.

Payment methods and options
- Specific school fee payment methods (for example: bank transfer or direct debit formats for tuition and boarding invoices, acceptance of card payments, or online payment portals) are not published in the publicly accessible fee documents reviewed. The parents' association and programme pages publish bank-account details for association/ programme payments; invoice-level payment instructions are normally provided to parents with the enrolment/contract documentation.

Brief note on data availability
- Detailed, line-by-line fee schedules for the 2026/27 academic year (or 2025/26) were not publicly available in the materials accessible for review. The numeric tuition band examples, the one-off admission fee (EUR 200) and the refundable security deposit (EUR 150), the income-related tuition bands and the sibling-remission examples above are taken from the school's recorded responses in public records and school publications referenced in public documents. For contract-level specifics (precise current monthly tuition per grade or per term, current boarding package price, billing dates, and acceptable payment channels) the school's enrolment/contract documentation provides the definitive items and terms.
