School registration payments on the current admissions page
| UK school registration | £180 |
|---|---|
| Overseas school registration | £300 |
The main school fees page currently quotes these registration amounts and says registration is non-refundable and paid with the form. Its general statement says quoted fees include VAT. No academic year is attached to this page, so these are not labelled as a 2026/27 tariff. Nursery has a separate fees page and separate admission terms; do not apply these school-registration amounts to a nursery place.

School acceptance deposits on the current admissions page
| UK school acceptance deposit | £1,000 |
|---|---|
| Overseas Prep School acceptance deposit | £9,415 |
| Overseas Senior School or Sixth Form acceptance deposit | £13,753 |
The school confirms the place after receiving the signed contract and relevant deposit. It says deposits are credited to the pupil’s final account, but the full deposit is forfeited if the offered place is not taken up. On moving from Prep to Senior only the difference between deposits is payable. These deposits are separate from tuition and must not be treated as recurring annual fees. Nursery has a distinct, currently inconsistent published deposit schedule and is excluded from this table.

School and nursery admissions payments have different scopes
The registration and deposit figures above are current quotations from the main school admissions page, not a dated tuition schedule. The place is secured by a signed Parent Contract and the relevant deposit, with credit to the final account subject to the stated conditions. Nursery uses a separate fee route; obtain its written offer and deposit amount before paying. The school’s published per-term tuition still lacks an academic-year label, so no 2026/27 tuition table or annual comparison has been inferred from it.
