Fees

Our fee structure

The details of our fee structure is given below.

There are several factors to be aware of when comparisons are made between different schools, both locally and nationally.

• Our fees include free, supervised wrap around care for all Prep and Senior School pupils from 7.45am to 5.00pm daily.
• Our fees also reflect our smaller class sizes, throughout the school.
• Our Nursery fees are the most competitively priced locally for the excellent standard of care and the exceptional school-wide facilities that are utilised.
• We are proud to offer a through education from 3-18 years. By running a Sixth Form, we attract a different calibre of subject teachers whose experience and knowledge trickles down to our very youngest pupils.
• Indeed, our Prep children are taught Computing, Modern Foreign Languages, Music and PE by specialist staff who lead these curriculum areas to A-level.
• Our fees are inclusive of textbooks and writing materials.

We appreciate for many families the addition of VAT to independent school fees is a worry.
