- The school does not publish a detailed, itemised per-term fee schedule publicly for the 2026/27 academic year; the items below reflect the most recent published school communications and commonly reported current fee ranges (2024–2026 reporting).

Application / Registration fees
- One‑time registration / application fee is normally charged at admission; no single, public flat amount for 2026/27 is published. Reported practice for parents includes a one‑time registration/payment on enrolment in line with other private schools in Lagos.

Tuition fees by school stage (reported ranges)
- Early Years / Nursery: annual tuition is commonly reported toward the lower end of the school's published ranges; individual figures are not published publicly for 2026/27.
- Primary (Junior School): reported annual tuition commonly falls within the school's general range; detailed per‑year or per‑term published amounts are not publicly available.
- Secondary (Senior School, including IGCSE/IGCSE preparation years): reported annual tuition commonly falls toward the mid–upper portion of the school's range; specific per‑year breakdowns are not published.
- Commonly reported total tuition range (day students, annual): approximately ₦1,500,000 to ₦2,800,000 per year in publicly available school lists and fee roundups; some market reports and school‑ranking summaries present slightly higher estimates for selected years/stages. These are reported ranges rather than an itemised official schedule.

Per‑term amounts
- The school typically bills on a term basis (three terms per academic year is standard practice); however, no authorised public document listing exact per‑term tuition for each year group for 2026/27 was located. Families typically expect the annual tuition above to be divided across three terms, with additional levies billed separately.

- In‑person payments at the school office are referenced as an accepted method (paper applications / in‑person payments for some items). Electronic bank transfer and in‑person payments are the commonly documented options; no public statement confirming card/online card payment gateways for tuition was located.

What is and is not available publicly
- Available: school newsletters and communications list specific exam levies, optional item costs (past question packs, tablets), event levies, and confirm the existence of boarding.
- Not available publicly: a full, itemised per‑year, per‑term official tuition schedule for the 2026/27 academic year (or a downloadable fee schedule with termly breakdowns). The commonly published material from school listings and independent school‑fee roundups provide annual ranges only.
