Fees
Overview

- The school requires payment of an enrolment deposit (referred to as a registration/advance installment) at the time the application/registration is submitted; this deposit secures the pupil's place and is treated as non‑returnable under the school's enrolment rules.

Application / Registration Fees

- A specific numeric application fee is not published in the school's publicly available enrolment material. Instead, the enrolment process requires payment of the amount(s) stated on the registration form (a registration advance/dose) as part of the application. The registration advance is retained if the parent withdraws; the school treats the registration advance and any earned fees as non‑refundable once payable.

Tuition fees by year group (per term / per year)

- No publicly posted, itemised tuition amounts (per term or per year, by specific year group or grade) for the 2026/27 academic year or for 2025/26 were located in the school's public materials reviewed. The school's published material confirms that annual tuition is defined per pupil and that any discounts or special arrangements are set out in the enrolment documents, but it does not publish fixed numeric rates in the publicly accessible documents consulted.

Billing schedule and payment terms

- Tuition may be paid either in full (one payment) or by instalments. Instalment schedules and dates must be recorded on the registration/enrolment forms; any agreed instalment plan and its dates are binding. Extensions of instalment due dates require the school's written consent in advance. Late or missed payments render the amounts immediately due and the school may seek recovery through legal means. Discounts or other concessions (when offered) are conditional on timely payment.

Boarding fees

- No boarding programme or boarding fees are listed in the school's public programme descriptions; the school operates as a day school across its advertised grade levels. If boarding services were to be provided, those charges are not published in the public materials reviewed.

Other costs and typical additional charges

- School supplies and prescribed stationery: the school publishes detailed lists of required stationery and educational materials for early years and primary classes; these items are charged to parents/guardians as standard consumable/supply costs.

- Optional and ancillary services: optional services (for example extended-day programmes, extracurricular activities, swimming or similar paid provisions) are treated as separately chargeable items; the school's regulations specify that additional services chosen by the parent are billed according to the agreement between parent and school. School transport (school buses) and meal/school‑catering options are referenced as separate services and are typically charged in addition to tuition.

- Uniforms: a required uniform fee line item is not published in the materials inspected; however certain clothing/equipment items (e.g., protective smocks for arts) and lists of required kit are published for relevant age groups.

Refund and withdrawal policy (financial effects of withdrawal or non‑attendance)

- Withdrawal before the start of the school year: the parent may withdraw up to the day before the start of the school year; in that case the paid registration advance is forfeited while the parent is released from further financial obligation for that year. After the school year begins, the parent remains financially liable for the full tuition for the year unless the interruption is due to the school's fault and the school expressly agrees otherwise. The school's rules state explicitly that the registration advance and amounts already earned are not returned. If the school cancels a class or cannot provide a service because it does not operate that class, any unearned amounts for that cancelled provision may be returned.

Fee payment options

- The school's published privacy/payment information lists the following payment processing methods: credit card (via secure e‑commerce environment), bank e‑commerce (bank payment gateway) and PayPal; third‑party payment processors are used for card/online payments. Other traditional methods (bank transfer or payment at the school office) are not explicitly listed in the publicly posted privacy text but are commonly used in private school billing practices and may be available—any accepted methods and their details are recorded in the enrolment/billing documentation.

Summary of the available fee details

- The school's enrolment and internal regulations set out the framework for fees (requirement to pay a registration advance, option to pay in full or by instalments, binding instalment dates, non‑refundability of the registration advance once paid, and treatment of optional services as separately chargeable). However, specific numeric tuition amounts by year group or per term for the 2026/27 academic year (and for 2025/26) are not published in the public materials consulted. The materials reviewed include the school homepage, enrolment form page, published stationery lists, and the school's internal financial and enrolment regulation document.

Wellbeing

Social and Emotional Learning (SEL)
We create a functional and stimulating learning environment, and the core of our approach is the active and meaningful involvement of the student in acquiring new knowledge. Children have regular opportunities to interact with the natural and social environment, freely choose activities, explore and discover. In spacious, well-organized classrooms, learning occurs in groups to highlight the value of teamwork and joint discovery. By leveraging group dynamics, students learn to collaborate harmoniously, socialize, develop critical thinking, and cultivate the capacity for reflection.

Special Educational Needs (SEN)
Lampiri provides support for learners with special educational needs in the IB Diploma Programme. Inclusion is defined as an ongoing process to increase access and engagement by identifying and removing barriers. Support for SEN includes curriculum modification, enrichment activities, classroom accommodations, small-group instruction, and one-on-one support; pull-out services are provided when needed to meet academic, social, or behavioral needs. Individualized Education Plans (IEPs) are written for students identified for special education services, are confidential, and are revised annually. All students with an IEP follow the same curriculum as peers, with modifications to content or assessment where required. When necessary, Lampiri engages outside professionals such as educational psychologists or speech and language therapists, with parents covering the costs. Confidentiality is maintained; student files are kept in a locked area and information is shared only with staff who need to know.

English as an Additional Language (EAL)
Additional English language classes are provided.

Mental Wellbeing
Lampiri is committed to a safe and supportive learning environment in which students with special educational needs thrive academically, socially and emotionally. The school recognises mental health as part of overall learning and supports social and emotional development through inclusive teaching and appropriate assessment practices. When needed, outside professionals such as educational psychologists or other specialists may be engaged to support learning and wellbeing, with costs borne by families as applicable. Individualized plans (IEPs) guide targeted support and are reviewed annually, and confidentiality is protected with shared information limited to those who need to know. The school emphasizes collaboration among teachers, the IB coordinator, and families to promote student wellbeing.

Safeguarding
Lampiri provides a safe and supportive learning environment. Confidentiality is safeguarded; student records are stored securely and information is shared only with staff who need to know. Parents/guardians are essential partners in safeguarding and are kept informed about welfare matters. When needed, the school may engage external professionals to support student welfare. Safeguarding arrangements are integrated with the school's inclusive approach to education and with the needs of IB Diploma Programme students to ensure a secure and supportive learning experience.
