Boarding fees

- No boarding fees are published on the school's admissions or fees pages. The published fee statements present tuition as an "all‑inclusive" day‑school style charge with the items listed above included; there is no published boarding fee schedule on the school's admissions, tuition, or FAQ pages.

Other costs or fees

- Uniform costs are included in the annual/all‑inclusive fee.
- The school describes the published tuition as fully inclusive of the items listed above; no separate mandatory uniform, laptop, instrument, lunch, or co‑curricular charge is listed as an additional compulsory fee for those items.

Fee payment options

The school uses an online application portal (OpenApply) for admissions and a parent portal is indicated for enrolled families, but explicit, published payment methods and payment instructions are not listed on the public fees pages.

Summary of items not published on the public fee pages

- The school publishes clear annual fees and the items included, and it publishes that the academic year is in three terms and fees are due before the school year starts. However, the school does not publish a separate per‑term invoice schedule (the per‑term figures above are calculated by dividing the annual fee by three), nor does it publish a detailed tuition‑refund policy, a specific list of accepted payment methods, or a separate boarding fee schedule.

If you require these missing operational details (explicit per‑term invoicing from the school, formal tuition refund rules, or the school's accepted payment methods and bank/payment account details), those items are not shown on the school's published admissions and fees pages and are not included in the material used here.
