Fee Structure - British International School Riyadh

Invoices are sent by email before the end of the current academic term or following acceptance of a place for a new child joining the School during the term. The date that fees are due is clearly indicated on invoices and misplacement or non-receipt of the original invoice cannot be considered a valid reason for failure to pay the fees. A penalty of SAR1050 will come into effect if fees are not paid by the date indicated on the invoice. In the event of non-payment two weeks after the due date we will have to suspend the student until the fees are paid. If fees are not paid following suspension, the child’s place will be forfeited unless agreed otherwise by the Principal. Fees will not be refunded if a child is withdrawn from School.

Fees are required to be paid in full prior to the admission date offered to your child or prior to the first day of the term. The full term's fees are due even if a student is on roll for only part of the term.

External examination fees, including GCSE and A level fees will be invoiced separately.

Please ensure that you replace 001-051440-017 with the unique virtual account number provided to you. In case you bank with any other bank other than SABB, please use the virtual account (VA) in IBAN format number(s).
