Payment Policies

The tuition fees are due prior to the start of the academic year and payable in advance of attendance, at the start of each term. Tuition fees will be invoiced from the time of admission to ensure that payments can be processed before the start of the term. If your circumstances change, it is essential that you contact us in advance of the deadline so that we can guide you on available options. Please note, all tuition fees are in accordance with the fee structure established by GEMS Education under the guidance of KHDA established School Fee Framework.

We want all of our GEMS parents to feel informed about academic fees and be able to plan their academic year. If you have any questions please don't hesitate to contact our team for more information. We are always happy to help at any stage.

  • If the student was enroled in the Academy for two weeks or less, a month’s fees will be deducted.

  • If the student was enroled in the Academy for more than a month, the full terms fees will be deducted.
