The headline tuition fee is rarely the full cost of a school year. Before enrolling, ask specifically about:
- One-time admission or registration fees
- Annual charges billed separately from tuition
- Transport fees (often distance-based)
- Uniforms, books and stationery
- Device or technology fees for smart classrooms
- Activity, trip and camp charges
- Annual fee escalation policy for future years
- Refund policy if you withdraw mid-year
Ask the school for an itemised fee structure in writing — a reputable school will have no trouble providing one.
