Billing schedule and payment terms

- Fees are collected in four instalments during the academic year. The school also presents a monthly equivalent that is calculated over ten months for internal reference. Fees must be settled according to the instalment schedule; repeated non‑payment leads to temporary suspension and withholding of results until accounts are cleared. The school does not apply monetary fines for late payment but follows its collection procedures. A one‑time registration charge of AED 500 is payable on enrolment and is credited against the total fees or retained as described above.

Boarding / residential fees

- Boarding is not applicable; the school operates as a day school and provides school transport but does not publish any boarding or residential charges.

Other costs and optional charges

- Uniform: AED 420 per student (annual, one‑time). Uniform charges are separate from the annual "School Fees (Tuition + Book)" figures.
- Textbooks / workbooks: included in the published "School Fees (Tuition + Book)" amounts.
- School bus / transport: charged separately; route‑ and service‑dependent annual transport charges exist but specific per‑route amounts are not published publicly. Transport is treated like tuition in refund/withdrawal calculations.
- Seat‑booking / acceptance deposit: a seat‑booking or similar one‑time charge is applied on registration and is deducted from annual fees on enrolment. Exact amounts for seat‑booking beyond the AED 500 registration charge are variable in published material.
- Optional / occasional charges: charges for external examination fees, optional trips, optional extracurricular activities, replacement items (ID, books) and similar incidental items may be invoiced separately; these are not included in the annual tuition figures.

Refunds and withdrawal charges

- On withdrawal during the academic year the school applies a short‑term retention/notice charge according to the period the student attended before withdrawal. The policy is applied as a retained amount of tuition: if the student attended for two weeks or less, one month's tuition is retained; if attendance exceeded two weeks but was less than one month, two months' tuition are retained; if attendance exceeded one month, three months' tuition are retained. Books and uniform fees are not refundable; transportation fees are treated like tuition for refund calculation. Refunds are processed after deduction of any applicable retention and after settlement of outstanding charges.

Fee payment options

- Specific accepted payment channels (for example, bank transfer, card, cheque or cash) are not published in the materials available; parents or payors are required to follow the school's invoicing and accounts instructions when making payments.

Key practical points for parents

- The published annual figures for each grade are the combined tuition + book amounts; uniform is charged separately at AED 420. Calculate a per‑instalment amount by dividing the annual figure by four (the school's instalment count); a per‑month equivalent divides the annual figure by ten.
- A one‑time registration charge (AED 500) secures the place and is applied as described above. Uniform and book charges are not refundable when a pupil withdraws; transport fees follow the same refund rules as tuition.
