The school offers several boarding patterns alongside day attendance. Discuss which routine will suit the pupil and how transitions are supported. Discuss the child’s language background and any existing support plan before applying. Ask what help is available in lessons, how progress is reviewed and whether it carries an extra charge.

Fees and the first-year budget
The school publishes 2026/27 day and boarding prices per term, shown in the table below. Payment is invoiced termly in advance. The school has not published a single comparable annual total here, so the termly tariffs are not annualised. Check compulsory extras and the relevant year group before comparing budgets.

Application and budget details
Felsted separates day, weekly boarding, full boarding and flexible boarding charges. Prep flexi-boarding prices are quoted per week, while the main day and boarding tariffs are per term, so they must not be compared as if they use the same period. The 2026/2027 extras table lists individual Prep learning support at £60 per hour, reducing to £48 for two pupils or £36 for groups of three or more. Specialist clubs, music and selected extended-day services also have additional charges.
Source ↗ · checked
Fee periods and payment conditions
The 2026/27 main Day and Boarding packages are quoted per term including VAT; they are not annual figures. Pre-Reception is per term and VAT exempt. Prep flexi-boarding is a weekly quote. The school may issue up to six invoices a year: term fees are payable in advance before the first day of term and additional charges are invoiced termly in arrears. Do not multiply the term table into an annual price or add a boarding package to the Day fee.

Additional cost scope
Optional care, transport, music, activities and support depend on the pupil’s choices and needs. Asterisks in the extras tables identify VAT-exempt items; other listed extras are headed including VAT. Books, dictionaries, examinations, off-site transport and incidental EAL items can be charged at cost. The current page gives conflicting four-night Prep flexi-boarding amounts, so a confirmed quote is needed for that pattern. Senior Sixth Form EAL lists one- and two-pupil rates but also says lessons are one-to-one; confirm the actual arrangement. Unspecified tennis units, the Senior visa-support period and the Reception–Year 2 general club charge period are not inferred.
