سياسة تحصيل الرسوم

This policy sets out how ANPS collects enrollment and tuition fees, the timeline for settling them, and the steps the school follows when fees are not paid.

New Enrollments

New students accepted at ANPS must pay an enrollment fee before the start of the academic year. The enrollment fee reserves the student's seat for the year: without it paid by the communicated deadline a place is not held, even where the student has already been accepted.

• The enrollment fee is AED 1,000.
• It is non-refundable once the deadline has passed, as the place is then treated as an unfilled seat.

Tuition Fees

The school collects the first instalment (in full) of the tuition fees one month before the start of the academic year, with the deadline being the first day of school.

Non-Payment of Tuition Fees

Before each term begins, the school sends a general reminder that fees are due. Where fees remain unpaid, the school follows a clear and transparent escalation:

• Week 1: A reminder that the term fees are due.
• Week 2: A first warning letter that the child's fees are not yet settled.
• Week 3: A second warning letter that the child's fees are not yet settled.
• Week 4: A third and final warning letter stating that, if the fees are not settled within five working days, the student will be suspended.
• Week 5: The student is suspended, a formal meeting is held with the Principal, and the matter is reported to ADEK.

Action Taken for Defaulting

In addition to suspension, the school may withhold examination report cards, withhold transfer certificates (or block a transfer on eSIS), and/or withhold re-registration until all outstanding amounts are settled.

ANPS emphasises that it is not within the school's ethos to deny any child an education; however, as a private school that depends on fee collection to pay salaries and ensure sustainability, these measures are necessary.
