Fees

Application fees
- There is no one-time application or tuition fee to enrol a resident pupil into the school's free, municipally funded 1–8 (progimnazija) programmes.

Tuition fees by school year (2026/27 academic year)
- Core day-time education for grades 1–8 is publicly funded and provided without tuition charges to families; there is no annual or per-term tuition for the standard 1–8 curriculum.

Optional paid programmes and extracurricular fees (per year group / per term)
- Non-formal Cambridge programme: The school implements Cambridge international programmes in non-formal/extra-curricular format (selected year groups). Participation in these Cambridge non-formal courses is optional and is managed separately from the free national curriculum; associated costs (membership, materials, exam or programme fees) are recorded in the school's budgets and planning documents, so parents can expect charges for participation in Cambridge non-formal activities. The school's publicly available planning documents list Cambridge-related budget lines but do not publish a per‑student fee schedule.
- Other extra-curricular activities and after-school clubs: Some optional after-school clubs and paid short programmes may carry fees charged per activity or per term; no universal per-grade, per-term charge for extra-curriculars is published for 2026/27.

Meals, extended-day childcare and related recurring charges
- School meals and any paid extended-day supervision are charged as optional services to parents for the actual days attended; these services are typically billed on a regular (monthly) basis rather than as a single annual tuition. Municipal practice requires monthly settlement for meal services with payment deadlines set in local regulations. Exact meal prices and extended‑day tariffs for 2026/27 are not published in the school's public planning documents.

Billing schedule and payment terms
- For optional paid services (meals, non‑formal courses, extracurriculars), billing is generally handled on a recurring schedule (commonly monthly or per activity) with payment terms established in the school's service agreements or municipal rules; municipal practice applies to timing of settlement for meal services. The school's public administrative and financial documents show budgeting for optional services but do not publish a single, detailed per‑term billing calendar for parent charges for 2026/27.

Boarding fees
- The school does not operate a boarding facility; there are no boarding fees applicable.

Other costs and one-off charges
- Consumables, textbooks, workbooks and personal learning materials: Parents are responsible for individual learning materials and stationery where required by the national curriculum or specific classes (these are covered by parents, not by a tuition charge).
- School trips, thematic excursions, external exam fees or event-specific costs: These are charged on a case-by-case basis and billed to participating families as required; amounts vary by trip or event and are not listed as fixed per‑grade fees in the school's public documents.
- Uniforms / festival clothing: The school budgets line items for event apparel and festival-related garments in planning documents; any cost recovery from parents for festival attire or special event clothing is handled on an event-by-event basis rather than as a standing per-grade uniform charge.

Refund information
- Core tuition is not charged and therefore not subject to refund. For paid optional services (meals, non‑formal Cambridge courses, extracurriculars, trips), refund and cancellation terms are set out in the specific service agreements or event notices; no single consolidated refund policy for all optional charges for 2026/27 is published in the school's public planning or financial documents.

Fee payment options
- The school is a municipally administered budgetary institution and follows municipal financial procedures for collection of payments for optional services; typical methods for municipal schools include invoicing and bank transfer settlement. The school's public pages and planning documents do not publish a specific list of accepted retail payment methods (for example, credit/debit card or online card payments) for parent charges for 2026/27.

Summary of what is not published in public documents for 2026/27
- There is no published per-grade, per-term tuition schedule because core 1–8 education is publicly funded and free.
- The school's public budgets and plans show Cambridge programme costs and other optional-service budget lines but do not publish per‑student or per‑term price lists for Cambridge non‑formal courses, specific extracurricular fees, meal prices for 2026/27, or precise payment methods and refund mechanics. Parents should note that optional programmes and services are charged separately and billed according to the school's service agreements.
