SCHOOL FEES

An interview with the Principal will be required before the acceptance of any pupil.

An initial non returnable deposit of £500 is required to secure a place at the school. This is to be set against the FINAL term’s school fees. The school fees below are payable on the first week of term. There are three terms per year.

Fees for Early Years at September 2007

In addition, the school will retain any nursery scheme payment they obtain in respect of your child.

Fees may be increased from time to time at the discretion of the Principal.

No pupil may attend outside auditions or classes without the consent of the Principal.

A term’s notice must be given, in writing, before a child is withdrawn from the school, or a term’s fees in lieu of notice must be paid.

School hours are 09.15am to 16.00pm.

ADMISSIONS PROCEDURE

The minimum age of entry into the school is 3 years and 6 months old for inclusion in our Early Years class.

Admission to the school is through an interview with the Principal and Head Teacher. A copy of the child’s most recent school report, showing a reasonable academic standard, must be sent to the school prior to the interview. Evidence of artistic achievement, although desirable, is not essential.

Once accepted all new pupils are considered to be on one term’s trial.
