Fees shown are what families are billed. The school publishes two columns - a total tuition of AED 30,664 to 49,061 and a lower yearly payable - and KHDA registers the difference as a discount in its main fee block, which means it applies to every family rather than being an offer. The school's own table calls it an "Early Settlement Discount", but KHDA lists a separate early-payment scheme of 5% among its conditional discounts, so the reduction in the price above is not conditional on paying early. Tuition is billed in three instalments of roughly 40%, 30% and 30%. Mandatory book and uniform charges apply on top, and examination fees of AED 400 to 700 by grade, a Grade 12 graduation fee of AED 750 and transport of AED 4,025 to 8,395 a year are charged separately.
