We describe the band rather than fix the page to a single number, because the school revises its schedule each year and bills differently by stage. Parents should plan for the surrounding components as well as tuition.

• Registration fees: one off charges applied at enrolment.
• Annual tuition: billed per year and rising through the grades.
• Examination fees: IGCSE and senior qualification charges in the upper years.
• Extras: transport, meals, uniform, trips and activities.

For the citywide picture our guide to international school fees in Kuala Lumpur divides schools into value, mid and premium tiers, and you can compare bands by stage in our Kuala Lumpur primary fees and Kuala Lumpur secondary fees breakdowns. Confirm the current figures with the school.

Admissions

The main intake follows the academic year, with applications reviewed ahead of the start of term and mid year entry where a year group has space. Admission runs through an application, previous school reports and an age appropriate assessment.

Because the Diploma is demanding, sixth form entry considers prior attainment, and the school encourages families to visit to understand the IB approach before applying. Contact the admissions office to confirm availability and any English language support.
