Billing schedule and payment terms
- The publicly listed fee schedule shows the one-time registration charge and itemised annual charges but does not publish a detailed instalment schedule or specific payment due dates in the fee document. The published amounts are presented as annual totals; per-term breakdowns above have been calculated by dividing those annual totals by three to provide an approximate per-term figure where a term-level schedule is not published.
Boarding fees
- Boarding is not listed in the school fee schedule and no boarding fees are published. Boarding fees are therefore not applicable in the published fee schedule.
Other costs and regular additional charges
- The published fee schedule itemises the following annual/additional charges by year group where applicable: sports fee, computer fee, laboratory fee, and books. - Uniforms, transport (bus) fees, extracurricular activity fees, and any security/caution deposits are not listed in the published fee table; these items are not included in the published annual totals shown above.
Refund information
- No refund policy or refund schedule is published alongside the fee table in the publicly listed fee schedule. The published fee pages do not specify refund conditions or refundable deposits.
Fee payment options
- The published fee schedule does not specify accepted payment methods (for example credit card, bank transfer, or post‑dated cheques) or the bank account details in the fee table. Accepted payment methods are not detailed in the published fee table.
Notes on per-term figures above
- Where the school has published only annual totals, per-term totals shown above were calculated by dividing the published annual total by three to provide an approximate per-term value. The registration charge is presented as a one-time payment and has not been divided into term values in the above per-term calculations. The published annual figures and itemised components are those shown in the school's fee schedule.
