Fees are the school's published 2026-27 structure, which it heads "KHDA Approved Tuition Fees 2026-27". Every year group from KG1 upward is charged at the approved figure. Pre-KG is the exception: KHDA's 2026-2027 fact sheet shows a discount of AED 5,915 in the main fee block, bringing an approved AED 52,415 down to AED 46,500, and the school headlines that lower figure. The reduction is new this year, as the school's own 2025-26 fact sheet priced Pre-KG at AED 52,415 with no discount. Note that the school's Pre-KG instalment rows still add up to the older AED 52,415, so a family should confirm which figure their invoice uses. Tuition is payable annually or in three terms of 40, 30 and 30 percent. A registration deposit of 10 percent of tuition, or 5 percent for returning pupils, is deductible from the year's fees, and an application fee of AED 525 applies. English language support, transport, uniform and extracurricular activities are charged separately.
