Charges for Extra Subjects/Activities:

Full details of subjects/activities offered are published separately. Written permission of the parent or guardian is required before a student can be accepted for tuition in an extra subject/activity.

Since payment has to be made to the teachers concerned, subjects/activities may only be terminated at the end of the term, for which half of one term’s notice in writing is required, prior to half term. If a subject/activity is discontinued during a term, the whole of that term’s charge will be payable.

Where students require private academic coaching, this is a matter for a separate written contract between the parents and the School.

Notice of Withdrawal:

Once a place in the School has been accepted, at least one full term’s notice of withdrawal of a student must be given to the Head in writing, irrespective of whether the student has joined the School or not. If the required notice is not given, fees for the next term will be charged. Please see the School's Terms and Conditions.

Requests for changes of status from day to boarding or vice versa, or a change in boarding status categories of full, weekly or flexi, also require a full term’s notice

If a student has been a boarder for the Autumn and Spring Terms, the same fee will be applicable for the Summer Term irrespective of whether there is a change of status to a lower charge category Please see the School's Terms and Conditions.
