Fees
Application fees
- A non‑refundable admission/registration fee is required and must be paid together with the tuition for the first term.
- A refundable caution (deposit) fee is collected; the caution fee is refundable (without interest) when the child leaves, subject to settlement of all outstanding charges and penalties.

Tuition fees by year group (per term / per year)
- The school issues a detailed tuition schedule (per term and annual totals) for each year group as part of the admission/fee package and on request. Specific term‑by‑term amounts and annual totals for Pre‑K through Year 13 are provided in the school's fee structure documentation and invoice rather than being published as a public price list.

Billing schedule and payment terms
- Tuition is billed and collected on a term basis; fees must be paid in advance by the end of the second week of each term.
- An invoice showing the fee amounts due is provided to parents/guardians as part of the admission package or prior to the term; parents should use that invoice as the formal bill.
- Fees once paid (tuition and most school charges) are non‑refundable and non‑transferable. The school reserves the right to revise fees and to take actions for unpaid arrears, including referral to debt recovery agencies or credit reference bodies.

Boarding fees (if applicable)
- The academy is presented as a day school offering Nursery through Year 13; no boarding programme or boarding fee schedule is listed in the school's admission and publications materials.

Other costs and typical additional charges
- Uniform: uniform supplier details and uniform requirements (for example, the maqna for girls from Year 3) are included in admission documentation; uniform purchase is an additional cost to parents.
- Caution (deposit) fee: refundable on leaving subject to clearing all outstanding obligations.
- One‑off administration items: the admission package/invoice and application forms reference administrative receipts and invoice numbers (for example, caution fee receipt and invoice numbers) and imply there may be other one‑off fees such as registration/administration charges.
- Ancillary charges commonly invoiced separately include school trips, examinations, activity or club fees, and stationery/uniform items where applicable; those items are billed in addition to the tuition on parents' invoices. (Parents receive the full list of applicable ancillary charges in the fee schedule/invoice provided for the child's year group.)

Refund information
- Tuition and most school charges are non‑refundable and non‑transferable. The caution fee (deposit) is refundable when the pupil leaves provided all outstanding fees, penalties and notice obligations are cleared; facilitation of the caution fee refund and leaving certificate is processed after clearance and may take up to the timeframe set in the school's admission rules.

Fee payment options and instructions
- Bank payment is accepted; parents must bring bank deposit slips to the accounts office immediately after payment.
- The school issues formal invoices and uses an invoicing/accounts system for fees and payments. Parents receive the invoice that lists the accepted payment methods and the account details to use for fee payments.

If you are preparing an external database entry, record that the academy issues year‑and‑term‑specific tuition schedules and that amounts, billing schedules, and any discounts or sibling concessions are supplied with the admission fee package or on request for each year group.
