Fees

At Halcyon, our non-profit status is at the heart of everything we do. Because we don't answer to shareholders, every penny of your tuition is reinvested directly into the student experience. Our focus isn't a corporate bottom line; it's the personal growth, well-being, and academic success of our students.

This thoughtful reinvestment ensures your fees stretch further, providing a premium experience without the hidden costs often found elsewhere. Your fees cover more than just tuition, including: daily vegetarian lunches, annual residential trips, field trips, and various school supplies.

We value the trust you place in us. It is critical that Halcyon families know everything upfront, providing you with full financial clarity from day one.

Frequently Asked Questions

As a not-for-profit school, where does my tuition go?

Is there an application fee and an acceptance deposit?

Application Fee: A non-refundable fee of £375 (incl. VAT) is due when you submit your application.

Acceptance Deposit: Once we offer your child a place, we ask for a £1,800 (incl. VAT) deposit. This is held by the school and is typically refunded when your child moves on from Halcyon.

Development Fee: To help us keep our facilities high-quality, there is a one-time £2,250 (incl. VAT) fee for new students in their first year. For our returning students, this drops to just £125 (incl. VAT) per year thereafter.

When are fees due?

Does Halcyon offer and/or accept bursaries?

Yes. Admissions Bursaries serve new entrants to the school, where a place has been offered and parents are unable to fully fund the school fees. Each student to whom support is offered must, in the opinion of the Admissions Director and the Director, possess the potential to take full advantage of Halcyon’s approach to education. Bursary awards are strictly limited to School tuition fees. A bursary award does not include the admissions fee, deposit, development fee, and payments for mandatory resources, optional School trips or extracurricular clubs or activities.

Recently, Halcyon launched the Bridge Scholar Bursary, a long term commitment to equity and our way of guaranteeing that students from all backgrounds have access to a quality IB education. By providing access to our school for students who would otherwise be unable to attend, we are doing our small part to fulfill our own mission and the mission of the IB to “develop inquiring, knowledgeable and caring young people who help to create a better and more peaceful world through education that builds intercultural understanding and respect.” Learn more about the Bridge Scholar Bursary here.

Are Co-Curriculars included in tuition?

Our Co-Curricular offer is a blend of compulsory and voluntary clubs, trips and activities, delivered through our Extra-Curricular Activities (ECAs) and the Explorations Programme, plus additional activities, including Discovery Days, Residential and Overseas Trips.

Apart from Mother Tongue language courses and individual music lessons, Halcyon’s co-curricular activities are included in tuition.
