Fees

Annual tuition at Norwegian International School - Port Harcourt ranges from NGN 1,843,750 for 2026/27.

Scope and effective academic year
The fees described below are for the 2025/2026 academic session (the school's most recently available published figures for new secondary intakes).

Application / registration (one‑off) fees
- Enrollment / registration (one‑time): ₦250,000.
- Development (one‑off) charge for new intakes: ₦250,000.

Tuition (annual amount and per‑term note)
- Secondary (JSS1 – SS3) annual tuition listed for new intakes: ₦1,843,750 per year.
- The school invoices and accepts tuition on an annual or termly basis; therefore, where tuition is paid termly the annual amount is split across the terms in the school's term billing schedule (tuition is payable either annually or termly as invoiced).
- No publicly posted, itemised official tariff by individual year group (for example separate published amounts for Nursery, Primary year groups or for each Secondary grade) was available in the school's published fee material; the numeric tuition figure above refers to the secondary intake amounts reported for the 2025/2026 session.

Per‑term illustration (inference)
- If the published annual tuition for secondary students (₦1,843,750) is split evenly across three academic terms, the equal per‑term instalment would be approximately ₦614,583. This is an arithmetic division for illustration only (the school issues the actual term invoices and may split differently).

Boarding fees
- Boarding provision is available; boarding fees are charged in addition to tuition. Specific published boarding amounts were not publicly posted in the school fee material reviewed.

Other recurring and one‑off charges
- PTA contribution shown in published reporting for new intakes: an amount denominated as £600 (reported in the published intake fee breakdown).
- Additional costs commonly charged at intake (enrolment/development charges noted above) are separate from tuition and boarding and are payable on acceptance.
- Uniform, exam or textbook charges and other incidental costs are expected to be required but specific published prices for uniform and similar ancillary items were not listed in the publicly accessible fee material.

Billing schedule and payment terms
- Tuition may be billed and paid either as a single annual payment or split by term; invoices are issued to parents before the session begins.
- Published reporting for the intake fees specifically instructs parents to pay fees to the school's designated bank accounts; bank payment to designated banks is the documented payment route in the intake notice.

Refunds and fee policy
- A comprehensive fee policy exists and is made available to parents on request; there was no separate, publicly posted refund schedule or detailed refund rules in the publicly accessible fee material reviewed.

Payment methods
- The school's intake notices and fee guidance direct parents to make payments via the school's designated banks (bank deposit / bank transfer to designated school accounts). No public listing of alternative electronic card payment portals or third‑party card processors was found in the school's published fee text.

Concise summary (what is available and what is not published)
- Available numeric items for the 2025/2026 intake (secondary new students): Enrollment/Registration ₦250,000; Development ₦250,000; Annual tuition ₦1,843,750; PTA amount reported as £600.
- The school's public fee material states that registration is a one‑time payment valid for the child's stay, that tuition can be paid annually or termly and that a comprehensive fee policy is available on request; however, the school does not publish a full publicly accessible breakdown by every year group or an official per‑term tariff for each grade in the publicly available material reviewed.
