Monthly Interest Free Payment Scheme

We offer an interest free monthly payment option to our parents. For ease and simplicity, we have decided to offer our monthly payment option during the first three months of each term; this means that fees for each term should be paid in three equal instalments during the first three months of the relevant term. Please contact the school accountant for more details.

For children 5 and under, payment can be made by monthly instalments when paying via the HMRC Tax Free Childcare Payment scheme.
