Following confirmation of the government change to legislation which requires us to add VAT to tuition fees from 1 January 2025, the fees below will apply for the Spring and Summer term of the 2024/25 academic year. Warwick Schools Foundation has been able to put in place a discount on the base fee in order to cushion the introduction of this policy for parents, so that after VAT has been added to the fee, the net increase to parents is partially mitigated. These new fees, together with the discount and VAT, are shown below. Please note that the discount is only applicable to fees which incur the 20% VAT charge.
Registration Fee
A non-refundable registration fee of £120 (£100 plus 20% VAT) is required upon registration. This is payable by bank transfer (please use your child's name as reference).Acceptance Deposit
A non-refundable deposit of £500 is payable on request as confirmation of acceptance of the place. This will be refunded (less any outstanding charges) after the pupil's final term in the school.The deposit is currently exempt from VAT.
Please note that should you wish to withdraw your child’s place post acceptance, then a full term’s notice will need to be provided to avoid having to pay fees in lieu of notice.

Alternatively, parents can choose to spread the cost of their fees by paying in 12 monthly instalments, via Warwick Schools Foundation’s third party partner School Fee Plan.
