Fees
Application / admission fee

- An admission fee is required when applying and registering a new student. Exact amount is not published in the school's public materials; parents are required to pay the admission fee as part of the admissions process.

Tuition fees by year group (amounts)

- The school does not publish a publicly available, grade-by-grade tuition schedule for the 2026/27 or 2025/26 academic years. Exact tuition amounts per term or per year group are therefore not available here. Parents receive the specific tuition figure for their child at registration or through the school's admissions/administration offices.

Typical fee categories that will appear on your invoice

- Registration/admission fee (required at time of application/registration).
- Annual or periodic tuition (amount varies by grade; schools typically invoice tuition as an annual sum payable by term or monthly instalments — the school's exact billing cadence and amounts are not publicly posted).
- Supplementary program fees (examples listed by the school include after‑school ESL/CLASP classes that carry an additional cost, and monthly sports programs with separate pricing).
- Cafeteria/meals (served by an external provider; purchases are charged separately to the family's account or via the provider app).
- Uniforms, books and school supplies (sold through outside providers at the start of the school year; costs charged to parents separately).
- Any other incidental charges (special excursions, optional activities, or vendor charges) are billed separately when applicable.

Billing schedule and payment terms

- Specific billing cycles (for example, number of monthly instalments or term dates for payment) are not published in public materials. The school handles payments through its administration; parents receive exact billing dates and terms directly from the school at registration or in the family account.

Boarding fees

- No boarding program is listed in the school's publicly available descriptions; therefore there are no published boarding fees. The school operates as a day school (no bus service is provided).

Other costs and recurring extras

- ESL/CLASP support: in‑class language acquisition support is included in tuition, but some ESL/SSL classes (after school) are identified as carrying an additional cost.
- Extracurricular and sports programs: after‑school sports programs and certain academies have separate monthly fees or special pricing (e.g., golf arrangements through outside providers).
- Cafeteria: meals are provided by an external supplier; families may be billed through the cafeteria system or use the NUZO app for orders and payments.
- Uniforms and books: sold through outside providers at start of year; families pay those vendors directly.

Refund information

- No public refund policy or specific refund amounts are published in the school's public materials. The school maintains its policies and school regulations in its digital family resources (LMS/Toddle); detailed refund, withdrawal and contract terms are handled through those policies and the school's service contract. Parents should review the school's policies provided on enrollment for the official refund/withdrawal rules.

Fee payment options (accepted methods)

- Payments may be made in cash or by check at the administration office teller.
- Debit and credit cards are accepted at the administration office.
- Wire transfer or bank deposit is available.
- The school also accepts payments through its Comet Web platform.
- For cashier and administration contacts see the school's admissions and administration contacts.

Data availability note (summary of what was found and limits)

- Public materials available from the school (admissions information, FAQ, homepage and calendar) confirm the required fee categories (admission fee, tuition, additional program fees, uniforms/books, cafeteria) and list accepted payment methods, but do not publish numerical tuition, term/instalment breakdowns, or a public refund schedule for the 2026/27 or 2025/26 academic years. Because the school's public pages do not include a grade‑by‑grade fee schedule or published numeric amounts, exact per‑term or per‑grade figures cannot be provided here.
