Extras
The School tries to keep extras to a minimum. However, there are occasions when it is fairer to all for us to charge the cost of specific activities to the account of the relevant pupils. Examples of these are the costs for external examinations, additional language tuition, the materials for pupils who design their own art and DT projects, and the cost of books pupils keep. We also make specific re- charges for other items, including theatre trips, field trips, sports kit, taxis, stationery, newspapers, and activities organised through the House.
Trips which are a compulsory part of an academic course are usually included in the fees. From time to time, parents will receive information about optional trips. Every effort is made to keep the cost of these trips to the minimum.
Please see the School’s Terms and Conditions for further information about the payment of Fees and extras. The School’s Terms and Conditions are available on request from the Bursary.
