Infrastructure fee is payable termly with fees. The Infrastructure Fee is deferred for children entering FS1 until entry into FS2 and is assessed at the applicable rate for that academic year.
- Family discounts on the infrastructure fee: for a third child the fee is reduced to OMR 225 per term (25%); for a fourth child the infrastructure fee is waived (Zero). The published payment schedule shows the termly breakdown and totals per child.

Billing schedule and payment terms

- All fees must be paid in full on or before the first day of term. Invoices are issued at least two weeks before the end of the previous term.
- All fees are payable in OMR. The school states that if a student leaves before the end of term, no refund will be considered.
- Discount: a 5% discount is applied for payment of the full annual tuition fees on or before the first day of Term 1.
- Instalments: payment by instalments is possible only by prior agreement and incurs a 5% charge (to be agreed in advance).

Late payment penalties and charges

- 5% flat-rate penalty for late payment on the first occasion.
- 10% flat-rate penalty for late payment on the second occasion.
- 15% flat-rate penalty for late payment on the third occasion.

Other charges and additional costs

- Supplemental charges apply for school residential trips, some after-school activities and for external examinations (including GCSE, A/S, BTEC, A Levels); these charges may include postage and invigilation and may include additional postage costs for return of scripts, university admissions, and submission of Common Entrance papers.
- Uniform: the school operates a uniform shop and BSM uniform is available to purchase from ZAKS; parents may also buy uniform from other retailers and a second-hand rail is operated with proceeds to the PFA. A Uniform Shop price list is published for items; costs for uniform items are separate to tuition and are charged to parents at purchase.
- Transport, lunches and specific voluntary services or activities may carry separate charges (these items are commonly charged in addition to tuition where applicable). Supplemental activity and trip charges are specifically noted by the school as additional to tuition.

Fee payment options and processing

- Credit and debit card payments are processed via third-party payment processors; the school's privacy and terms material makes clear the school does not itself store card details and that third-party processors handle card account information.
- The school issues invoices in advance of each term; instalment arrangements may be agreed in advance (subject to the 5% instalment charge). Invoices and the school billing process are the mechanism used to instruct parents on payment.

Notes on additional incidental charges

- Costs for individual optional or variable items (example: extended extra-curricular programmes, optional trips, examination entry fees, instrument hire, private tuition, or special project materials) are charged separately and vary by activity; the school explicitly warns that such supplemental charges will apply where relevant.
