Exact term breakdown and year‑group detail

- Tuition is invoiced on a termly basis (three terms per academic year) and, in most published schedules for similar sessions, the annual tuition is split across those terms with the first term often carrying the highest instalment; parents may also choose to pay the full annual tuition up front (an annual payment discount is applied). The school's contractual terms state that tuition may be paid termly or annually in advance.

- Friend of Regent (annual) levy: an annual parents' association levy is charged and payable in August.
- Imprest deposit: a refundable imprest deposit is invoiced on joining to cover incidental expenses; the balance, less any outstanding charges, is returned when the student leaves.

Billing schedule and payment terms

- Invoicing: invoices are issued at the end of each term and are payable before the start of the next term. New admissions must have the Capital Development Levy and the first term's fees paid in full before the student may start.
- Annual payment discount: a discount is applied for payment of the full year in advance (the school's policy specifies a discount for annual payment). A sibling discount is available (policy notes a sibling discount percentage).

Boarding fees and inclusions

- Boarding is offered as a separate line item on invoices; published summaries for the 2026/2027 session place full boarding tuition in the range given above (₦3.5M–₦3.8M per year). Boarding fees are shown separately from day tuition and typically include accommodation, meals and routine pastoral care, with some optional extras billed separately.

Other costs and typical additional charges

- Uniforms and boarding wear: uniforms are available from the school store; uniform costs vary by year group.
- Examination and external assessment fees: external exam fees (e.g., Cambridge/IGCSE) are charged in addition to tuition.
- Optional services and extras commonly billed separately include school meals (where offered as optional for day students), after‑school services, transport (route‑based charges), pocket money for boarders, certain trips and some extracurricular activities. Published overviews and recent fee breakdowns reported by third‑party school guides list these common additional items and estimated ranges.

Refund information

- Application fee: non‑refundable.
- Capital Development Levy: stated as once‑only and non‑refundable on acceptance of a place.
- Imprest deposit: treated as a deposit and refundable; the remaining balance after deductions for incidental charges is returned when the student leaves.

Fee payment options and practical instructions

- Payment frequency: termly (standard) or annual in advance (with discount). Invoices are sent by the School Bursar to parents and must be settled prior to resumption of term.
- Common payment methods: bank transfer or bank draft are the normal payment routes referenced in admissions and fee documents; the school issues invoice/payment instructions and account details on the invoice.

Discounts and concessions

- Annual payment discount: a percentage discount is applied for payment of the full annual tuition in advance (school policy provides a specific percentage for this discount).
- Sibling discount: a sibling discount is available (policy specifies the percentage).

Final notes (fee administration)

- Failure to pay fees by the due date may result in exclusion until outstanding fees are settled; fees are subject to change at the school's discretion. New students starting mid‑term are charged according to the school's enrolment rules for mid‑term entry.
