GUIDELINES FOR PAYMENT

1. Tuition and fees can be paid in full for the entire year or per term. Parents who pay the full annual fees within ten working days from the first day of resumption will receive a 5% discount on tuition fees.
2. All payment or 70% of the school fees MUST to be paid on or on the day of resumption. Children whose fees have been settled will be issued with a clearance card. The card serves as access to the school. Any child who does not have a clearance card on the first day of resumption will not be allowed into class. The 30% balance is payable before Midterm resumption for those paying termly and second week of resumption for third term for the annual payment.
3. New pupils enrolling any time before or after the midterm will pay tuition fees for the full term except otherwise agreed by the management.
4. For payments made by cheque, POS or wire transfer, if the amount received by the school is less than the actual school fees, the parent will be required to pay the balance.
5. Parents MUST write the name of the child as the depositor and not the name of the parent. This is because the school records only pupil’s name.
6. Fees paid are neither refundable nor transferrable – no refunds, reductions or set-offs will be made in the event of a child’s absence or withdrawal from school.
7. Fee Payment by a Third Party: An agreement with any third party (such as an employer, grandparent or other guardian) to pay school fees or any other sums due to the school does not release the parent from liability if the third party delays or defaults. It is the responsibility of the parent to ensure that all fees are paid by the relevant due date as set out in the Fee Schedule.

LATE PAYMENT

Unless otherwise advised, parents should pay their children’s fees on or before due date. If fees are not paid on time, the school will;

1. Notify parents one week after payment is due that it is late and should be paid.
2. If the payment is made within two weeks after it was due, no penalty will be charged.
3. If the payment is 2 weeks late, the bursar/admin will immediately call the parents for a meeting, or if this is not possible, write to the parent with a final warning.
4. Late payment attracts an additional charge of 5% per month of the total outstanding tuition after due date.
5. No access to results would be given to a child whose fees have not been paid fully.

Parents who are having difficulty paying the fees should contact the Head Teacher to avoid the late fee charge. If appropriate, the Head Teacher may arrange a payment plan for the outstanding fees for approval of the Management.

The withholding of education to the child is the final position and will be taken if the fee remains unpaid. Notice of pending withholding of education will be served on a child if the child is one term (or as the Management may determine) behind payment schedule and no schedule of payment agreement has been entered into with the management of the school.
