Application / Registration fees (one-time on enrolment)

- Kindergarten: OMR 50.
- Grades 1–2: OMR 100.
- Grades 3–10: OMR 75.

Books and related course materials (charged at registration / first term)

- Kindergarten: OMR 70.
- Grades 1–2: OMR 120.
- Grades 3–4: OMR 150.
- Grades 5–6: OMR 200.

- Grades 9–10: OMR 250.

Published tuition amounts (figures shown on the school's registration/fees schedule)

Note: the amounts above are the tuition figures published in the school's fee table. The fee table does not explicitly label those tuition figures as “per term” or “per year”; based on the amounts and the common three-term billing practice used by many schools in Oman, those published figures are consistent with a per-term presentation (for example, a published OMR 1,000 per term would equate to OMR 3,000 per academic year if the school runs three terms). That interpretation is an inference based on the published figures and regional practice; the original published table itself does not state the billing period.

Admissions

Admissions

1. Step 1 — Submit the Student Registration Form. To begin enrollment, you must fill the Student Registration Form, which is accessible under the Quick Access area as "Student Registration Form". The form is the initial trigger for a pupil's registration, and the enrollment is not completed until further steps are completed. The form is explicitly described as the starting point for enrollment, with a prompt to Register Now.

2. Step 2 — Prepare and submit required documents. Before registering, you must supply the following documents: six passport‑size photos; a copy of the birth certificate; passport copies of the student, father, and mother; a medical card copy; a visa copy for non‑Omani students; and an attested assessment certificate if the pupil studied abroad previously. These document requirements are listed on FPS's Registration Requirements page.

3. Step 3 — Review and pay registration fees. FPS provides a structured fee schedule by grade, including a Registration Fee, Books Fee, Tuition Fee, and Food Fee. The fee amounts are listed per grade level (Kindergarten through Grade 10). Registration and transportation fees should be paid in advance when the pupil is enrolled.

4. Step 4 — Attend the interview and placement test. The Admissions materials state that each pupil must attend an interview and undergo a placement test as part of the enrollment process. This test and interview are prerequisites before the school can proceed with enrollment.

5. Step 5 — Admission decision and enrollment confirmation. If the pupil passes the placement test and interview, enrollment proceeds after the required booking/registration fees are paid. The condition that the student is not registered until the interview, placement test, and fee payment is explicit in FPS's admissions guidance. Final enrollment is indicated by completing these steps and paying the applicable fees.

6. Step 6 — Transportation and start of enrollment. If the family chooses FPS transportation, monthly transportation fees are defined by area and payable in advance when enrolled. Transportation fees are listed separately and are not included in the core tuition; a transportation application governs area eligibility and pricing. The school also notes that transportation fees and registration fees should be paid in advance. FPS is located in Ghaf Al Sheikh, Nizwa, with bus routes noted to Izki and Adam for regional coverage.
