School Fees
From 1 January 2025 private school fees became subject to VAT at 20%. Unless otherwise stated, all fees and charges listed here are inclusive of VAT where applicable.
We review fee levels once a year and parents are notified of any changes prior to the commencement of the Summer Term. Revised fees take effect in the Autumn Term.
| Fees per term for the Academic Year 2024-25 with effect from 1 January 2025 | Excluding VAT | Including VAT |
|---|---|---|
| Lower School Years R, 1 & 2 | £6,620 | £7,944 |
| Upper School Years 3, 4, 5 & 6 | £6,860 | £8,232 |
School fees are inclusive of stationery, text books and all other teaching resources.
Lunch
School lunches, which are compulsory and not subject to VAT, are charged separately at £350 per term.
Trips
School trips are invoiced to parents at cost and are added to the invoice the term after they take place, with the exception of Summer term residential trips, which are invoiced in advance. Parents will be informed of trip costs prior to each trip taking place.
Accident insurance
Hurlingham subscribes to a Group Personal Accident Insurance policy, which is compulsory for all pupils. This will pay compensation on a no-fault basis in the event of an accident, and pupils are covered both inside and outside school throughout their time of being enrolled at Hurlingham. The termly premium for this is £5 per pupil.
Sibling Discount
Families with three or more children are automatically entitled to a 20% school fees discount for their third and subsequent children.
Registration
A non-refundable registration fee of £75 is charged to process each application for a place. This will be increased to £100 with effect from 23 April 2025.
Deposit
When you accept a place for your child, a non-refundable £2,000 acceptance fee is required.
Before your child starts at Hurlingham, you must also pay a holding deposit equivalent to one term’s fees (based on the advertised fees at the time of acceptance). This holding deposit is made up of the £2,000 acceptance fee plus an additional balance, which will be requested one term before your child’s start date.
The school will retain the holding deposit and return it (without interest) when your child leaves Hurlingham, provided that the required notice has been given. If your child leaves at the end of Year 6, no notice is required.
Notice of Withdrawal
We require one full term’s notice in writing to the Head on or before the first day of term of the intended withdrawal of a pupil. Failing this, fees for the following term are payable in lieu of notice. No exceptions can be made to this rule.
