Latest Updates
The School requires all fees to be paid in full 4 weeks after the invoice date. Invoices are normally sent out 7-8 weeks before the end of the previous term. Parents remain responsible for the timely payment of invoices, even in cases where a third party such as a company is making the payment (see page on the Corporate Contribution Programme for more information.) Students whose fees have not been paid will not normally be permitted to attend the school and the school will seek to reallocate their place at the latest 2 weeks before term commences.
All fees must be paid by bank transfer either from an account in the name of the registered parent or guardian or from another account the name of which has been notified to the school by the registered parent or guardian in advance in writing. The School will not accept payment of fees in cash. Bank transfer details can be found here.
In order to register an application to our School you must make the 40,000 yen registration payment and produce the bank transfer or cash receipt with your registration forms.
