Fees for Academic Year 2023/24

We operate a sliding fee scale based on ability to pay. Full information is provided when you apply. Please note, admissions are normally made on bands C, D, E or F. but it may be possible to admit on a lower bursary band. If you feel Park School would be the right place for your child, but are unable to meet the fees, it is always worth talking to us.

Application form

Admission fee letter

Fees are paid over 11 months of the year, payable on the 1st of each month

Additional hours in Early Years are charged at £12.50 per hour, payable termly in advance.

Application

  1. Complete an admissions application form and return it the school. This indicates a serious interest in the school, but commits neither you nor the school. You can download an admissions application form here.

  2. Contact the school to arrange a tour.

  3. The School may wish to contact your child's previous school for a verbal, or occasionally written, report. Such reports can provide an interesting and helpful profile for us to build on.

  4. Children are invited to spend some time in their prospective group to meet the other children and the teacher. This is normally three days for children in the main school and three half days for Early Years children. The time may be extended by mutual agreement.

Enrolment

  1. A non-refundable enrolment fee of £50.00 is charged to cover administrative costs.

  2. The school also requires a refundable deposit of the equivalent of one month's band C fees (£859) On leaving the school, you will be able to choose to have your deposit refunded providing proper notice has been given (see below) and there are no outstanding debts. Alternatively, you may like to donate all or part of it towards building up the school's compassionate bursary fund which supports children who for financial reasons might have to leave Park School.

  3. Both the enrolment fee and the deposit are payable on enrolment. Payment of these will ensure that a place is available for your child.

Notice

To aid proper planning, parents are requested to give as much notice as possible of their child leaving, and must give at least half a term's notice in writing to the office. In the absence of this, fees must be paid in lieu. In addition, in the event of any amounts remaining outstanding when the child has left the school, the deposit will be retained.
