Fees and Funding
Fees are subject to revision from time to time, but it is the policy of the Governors to give parents a minimum of a term's notice of any change made.
Your School fees cover all of the costs of providing the day-to-day education of your daughter. Junior Department fees include lunch.
Fees are reviewed annually, and we always try to minimise increases. Fees are invoiced before term begins and need to be paid in full by the first day of term.
Fees shown are inclusive of Value Added Tax where applicable.

Childcare Vouchers and Tax-Free Childcare
Tax-Free Childcare is a government scheme that helps parents with the cost of childcare. Unlike Childcare Vouchers, which were processed through payroll, the new Tax-Free Childcare system is managed directly by parents through an online account on the HMRC website.
Providing certain criteria are met, you can use Childcare Vouchers or Tax-Free Childcare to pay for the non-compulsory elements of your child’s education and care, including:
-
Home-based care, such as childminders, nannies, and au pairs
-
Pre-school care, including our nursery classes
-
Out-of-school care, such as breakfast clubs, afterschool clubs (including activities and homework clubs), and holiday clubs
At Leicester High School, we accept Childcare Vouchers against fees for non-compulsory age pupils only. Vouchers can be used towards fees for:
-
Wraparound care, including afterschool clubs and aftercare

Fees Refund Scheme
The School participates in an optional Fee Refund Scheme operated by Marsh Brokers Limited. Refunds of fees are made for absence due to illness or accident for a continuous period of at least 5 days. A termly charge of 0.73% of basic fees is added to your School account.
Discounts
For Siblings: We offer 5% fee reduction for the second daughter, 10% for the third and subsequent daughters.
