Billing schedule and payment terms

- Tuition is billed in three instalments across the academic year; the commonly used split is Term 1: up to 40% of the annual fee, Term 2: up to 30%, Term 3: up to 30%. Fees are payable in advance of each term. Schools may also offer alternative payment arrangements in line with KHDA rules (for example monthly instalments where available).
- The registration/offer deposit is deducted from the first-term amount; an offer is normally secured only after the deposit is paid. Failure to pay required instalments by published due dates can affect a student's continued enrolment or admission for the term.

Boarding

- Boarding is not applicable. Kings' School Dubai is a day primary school for Foundation Stage 1 to Year 6 (ages 3–11).

Other costs and typical optional charges

- Uniforms: typical one‑off uniform costs are reported in the range of AED 500 to AED 1,100 (items and quantities vary by age and whether items are bought new).
- Extra‑curricular activities: optional clubs and activities are commonly charged per activity or season; reported ranges for optional activity charges run from low tens of dirhams up to around AED 2,000 depending on the activity.
- Learning support / specialist provision: charges for additional learning support can vary widely and are listed as optional or variable on school fee fact sheets.
- School trips, camps and other optional services: these are charged separately when they occur; examples reported include small local trips through to overseas educational visits with costs that can range from AED 10 up to several thousand AED depending on the programme.
- Deposits and non‑tuition mandatory items: an admission/registration deposit (see above) is usually charged; some mandatory incidental items (ID card, first-aid cover, school diary) may also be charged and vary by school.

Refund information

- Registration and re‑registration deposits are normally non‑refundable except in specified extenuating circumstances (for example verified family relocation). Tuition paid prior to the start of the academic year is generally refundable with the registration/re‑registration fee deducted. If withdrawal takes place after the start of a term, KHDA guidance sets standard deductions (for example: if enrolled two weeks or less a month's fees deducted; between two weeks and one month two months' fees deducted; if more than one month, the full term's fees may be deducted). Refund calculations are performed on the basis of KHDA rules and the school's parent‑school contract.

Fee payment options

- Online payments are accepted; schools commonly accept bank transfer and card (credit/debit) payment and may offer online portals for invoice settlement. Refunds made to card or online payments are usually returned to the original payment method where applicable. Specific available payment channels and any charges for card payments are set by the school.

Important practical points

- The school is primary-only (FS1–Year 6); there is no boarding provision. Annual tuition amounts listed above are the published annual tuition figures used for billing and contract purposes. The standard billing approach is termly instalments with the first instalment due at the start of term; deposits are normally credited against Term 1.
