Fees are structured across three terms, with the first term (August to December) accounting for 40% of the annual fee, and the second and third terms (January to March and April to July) each accounting for 30%. This transparent termly structure allows families to plan their finances with clarity.
The school's fee levels are competitive within the mid-range segment of Dubai's British curriculum schools. Additional costs such as uniform, educational visits, learning support, examination fees, and transport are invoiced separately and are not included in the published tuition fees. A registration deposit of 10% of annual tuition is required upon acceptance of a place, which is deductible from the total fees but non-refundable. Existing students are required to pay a re-registration deposit of 5% of annual tuition to secure their seat for the following academic year.
Families with multiple children enrolled at the school may benefit from a sibling discount policy, which offers deductions of up to 25% for the fourth sibling and up to 50% for the fifth and sixth siblings. The school also partners with First Abu Dhabi Bank (FAB), offering parents the option to pay annual fees in advance using the FAB GEMS World Credit Card and save up to 3%, along with additional benefits on school-related expenses.
