Individual music lessons with the peripatetic music teachers are payable extras. The charges for these will be itemised as an extra item on the school fees bill and are payable in advance with the fees. A half-term's notice of intention to stop lessons is required.
From time to time, we ask for small sums to cover the costs of outings, theatre visits, special activities, eg skiing (seniors only) etc.
"After-school" clubs, which are voluntary, make a small charge to cover costs or materials.
As a special arrangement, fees for pupils entering Kindergarten in September can be paid monthly by standing order, at the rate of £450 per month for twelve months. This arrangement is for Kindergarten year only. The monthly bill will also have added a share of payment for lunches and any other fixed costs.
School fees are payable before the first day of each term, apart from the special arrangement for Kindergarten. We reserve the right to charge interest, at 2% per month, for late payment.
In the event of the withdrawal of a child, notice in writing of one full term, in the absence of which the full fees for the following term must be paid (payment in lieu of notice), is required. Notice can be given at any time prior to the start date of the term to which the notice relates. The School reserves the right at their absolute discretion to charge and recover the full fees payable. There is no reduction or remission of fees for absence through illness or any other cause, but an insurance fee remission scheme is obtainable from some specialist education brokers.
A Registration Fee of £50 per child is payable with the form and is refundable only if a place is not offered by the School. Once a place is offered, the acceptance form should be returned to the school as soon as possible together with a deposit of £150 per child. The deposit is refundable when the child(ren) leave the school, less any deductions for any payments outstanding. In the event that a child does not join the school after a place has been accepted, the deposit will be retained by the school.
