International / special student note
- A third‑party directory listing shows an international‑student boarding fee quoted as USD 520 for international students; parents of international students should note an international boarding figure may be listed in USD in some communications.

Parents obtain a learner payment code from the accounts section to use when making payments.

- Fee payments are made via bank payment to the school's nominated bankers. The school lists Centenary Bank and Stanbic Bank Uganda Limited as the schools' bankers for fee deposits/transfers. Payments are made using the learner payment code provided by the school accounts office.

Boarding‑specific notes
- Boarding term rates include meals and boarding provision as part of the boarding fee line items shown. Mattresses and blankets are provided for boarders. Functional/entry boarding fees include specified clothing items.

Refunds and withdrawal
- The published fee schedule and requirements document does not set out a specific refund or withdrawal policy in the fee lines provided. Parents should note that some one‑off entry charges (registration/functional fees) are typically non‑recurring; explicit refund terms are not listed in the fee schedule.

Summary of how charges are presented
- Charges are shown as: one‑off assessment and functional/entry fees (payable on admission), termly tuition and boarding rates (day and boarding), termly transport rates, and certain one‑off uniform items.
