Question 7

Why do I have to pay school fee for December month?

Accepted Answer

Parents will be liable to pay the fees for the full academic year which can be paid in advance or on monthly installment basis. Since the fees are not pro-rated for the number of days in a month, the parent/guardian is liable to pay the full month fees regardless of the date of admission or withdrawal. The monthly school fees will not be waived off due to a student’s absence from school for personal or medical reasons. Fees for the full academic year is divided into 12 equal installments  for the parents convenience.

The school provides a sibling discount when multiple students with the same parent(s) attend either Kangaroo Kids or BHIS.

The discount is available for the younger siblings.  The second sibling will receive a discount of 10% of school fees.  The third sibling, and any younger siblings, will receive a discount of 20% of school fees.  The discount is applicable to the school fees only.  Applications must be renewed at the beginning of each academic year to receive this discount.

Question 9

Why do I have to pay for the remaining months if I want to withdraw the student after commencing the 4th Volume?

Accepted Answer

For any withdrawal application received after commencing the 4th Volume, parents will be liable for the remainder of the fees for that  year . Upon return from the 2nd Mid-Term Holidays, students will be receiving books and resources for the remainder of the year.  For withdrawals received after this date, the school will not be able to reallocate the remaining resources for the year and will have already incurred costs. Therefore, if you know that your student will be moving abroad or changing schools, please make sure to submit the withdrawal form before the commencement of the 4th Volume.
