Fees

School Tuition Fees

SchoolFee (Per Term)
Infants (Reception - Y2)£4,298
Juniors (Y3 - Y6)£4,404
Seniors£5,925
Sixth Form£5,925
Advertised tuition fees are inclusive of VAT. School tuition fees are not inclusive of school buses, lunches or any other additional items.

Payment Options

The School offers two options for payment by Direct Debit:

1) One payment per term (i.e. three payments per year) with the full term’s fees due on 1 September, 1 January and 1 May

OR

2) Monthly payments (i.e. twelve payments per year) with fees due on the first day of each month

The School issues termly fee bills in advance of the start of each term. These fee bills include school tuition fees and other extra charges as appropriate such as bus fees, lunch fees and school trips. With the exception of parents who pay for fees in advance, the only acceptable payment method is via Direct Debit.

As per the School’s Terms and Conditions (clause 4.7) in the event of late payment of fees, a penalty fee of 1.5% per month will be charged on a daily basis on fees which remain unpaid.

As the School operates as a charity, the payment of fees via Direct Debit is essential to ensure the School maintains sufficient cashflow, as well as minimising the administration costs which are incurred as a result of chasing the payment of fees.

If you require any further information on the payments of fees, please contact our Fees Officer, Mrs Deana Smith, on 0151 949 9329.

Lunch Fees

SchoolFee Per Term
Infants (Reception - Y2)£280
Juniors (Y3 - Y6)£320
Seniors£320
Sixth FormPlease See Below

A discounted charge for half a term’s lunch fees will be available to those pupils in Year 11 and Upper Sixth forms sitting external examinations in the Summer term.

Sixth Form students are permitted to leave the school premises during the day providing they meet their commitments with respect to attendance, punctuality and set work, and also sign in and out at reception. They can therefore choose to make their own arrangements for lunch or eat in the school dining room on a day-to-day basis using contactless payment.

You can learn more about our food offering or view a selection of our current menus on our catering page.
