Registration for January 2023 is now ongoing. We are admitting students into all classes from Year 8 to Year 12. For students awaiting results at PLE and O level, we will consider entry based on mock exam results and recommendations from current school. Our school fees structure is set out below. We offer the lowest fees for a British Curriculum School in Uganda. These fees can be reduced further if the first term's fees are paid in full at the time of registration. There are also discounts up to 50% for siblings and 30% if you refer another family to the school. Please contact the school to arrange a no obligation appointment.

Any damage to school property will be charged against the caution money.

Annual fees can be paid in 10 equal instalments beginning in January. Such a request must be put in writing

and approved by the school accountant. Approval will be subject to a USh500,000/= administration fee being paid.
