Current families are required to pay a 5% re-registration deposit to secure their child's place for the following academic year.

Additional costs to be aware of include Learning Support Assistant (LSA) fees for students requiring one-to-one support, estimated at AED 55,000 for Foundation Stage and AED 65,000 for Years 1–13. GCSE and IB examination fees are not included in the annual tuition fee and are communicated separately during the academic year. Sibling discounts are available for families enrolling a 4th or 5th child, at 15% and 25% respectively. Families may also benefit from paying annual fees in advance using the FAB GEMS World Credit Card to save up to 3%.
