Compare the same fee period
Ask for the official fee schedule for your child’s intended class and academic year. Check whether a quoted number is annual, per term or per month.
Separate recurring and one-time costs
Compare tuition, boarding and meals separately from admission charges, security deposits and registration fees. Ask what is refundable.
Account for the extras
Clarify imprest, uniforms, books, travel, trips, activities and medical expenses. Review payment deadlines and withdrawal conditions before paying.
