Language and learning support
Specialist tuition and learning-support lessons are charged separately. The fees page estimates IB examination charges at about £750 and also passes on external exam and university-application costs where applicable. Ask for the child's proposed support timetable and the current fee sheet so the tuition price is not mistaken for the full budget.
