A balanced early years curriculum
WITH LOTS OF EXTRAS too
We appreciate that choosing an independent school is a major financial commitment for any family. Our fees compare favourably with other independent schools and include many items other schools charge as ‘extras’ – such as a book bag, lunches, exam fees, learning support and curriculum-based field trips/visits. It’s our way of helping to keep costs to a minimum.
The fees for the academic year starting September 2024 are:
Free 15 hours a week for eligible children in FS1 via Early Years Funding. Early Years Funding is available until the term after your child’s 5th birthday.
| Morning session
(8.30am – 11.30am) |
Lunch session
(11.30am – 1.00pm) including lunch |
Afternoon session
(11.30am – 3.15pm) including lunch |
|
| FS1 and until the term after a child’s 5th birthday | Free (15 hours per week) | £23.66 | £50.70 |
Funded sessions include Early Years Funded educational provision only. They do not include optional services or consumables such as snacks, trips, forest school, PE sessions with specialist PE coaching staff or specialist music lessons. The Foundation may make additional charges for these and any other additional services.
Then:
| Monthly Direct Debit | Termly | Annually | |
| FS 2 from term after child’s 5th birthday | £1,010.50 | £4,042 | £12,126 |
| Y1 & Y2 | £1,010.50 | £4,042 | £12,126 |
Fees must be paid in advance. If paying termly the fee payments are due on the first day of each term.
Application Fee & Deposit
A non-refundable fee of £50 is charged to process every application. When you accept a place, we request a deposit of £300 and refund this deposit after they leave the school. Deposits are not returned if students withdraw after places have been accepted.
Fees in advance
Each year we offer a fees in advance scheme. For the academic year 2024-25 this will give parents the option of paying upfront for anything from two years up to a maximum of five years in exchange for a discount on the standard fee rate payable. All payments under the fees in advance scheme will be required before the start of the term to which it relates.
