Fees

We aim to make our fees as comprehensive as possible.

The basic termly fee covers the cost of tuition and all associated costs (including books and materials, and the cost of educational trips and visits on compulsory academic subjects), together with all meal costs and, where appropriate, boarding charges.

The only additional charges likely to be incurred are for extra tuition where required; exam fees and additional costs; insurances; travel on the College bus services; personal text books retained by the pupil; the cost of major visits and field trips on optional subjects (generally those undertaken by sixth form students); the cost of extra-curricular trips and tours; and the subscription to the College’s alumni association.
