BSB has the lowest fees overall, including application fees, compared to schools of a similar size. There are no extras (‘campus’ or ‘development’ fees), and almost all of our extensive range of Enrichment activities are free of charge. This is unusual in the international school world.
BSB is a private, fee-paying school. School fees are revised annually by the Board of Governors in the spring of each year, and are due in one single payment each May for the following academic year. Please note that no other rates are available.
The tuition fees include a significant number of benefits not routinely offered in other independent and international schools such as:
The school does not intend to apply a building levy for capital projects as some other schools do.
