Tuition Fees

The operational costs of the British Junior Academy are supported solely by the income from fees. The tuition fees are set annually by the Board of Management as part of the budget process. Details of the current fees are available from the school office. Being aware that parents have long term budgetary planning for school fees, the Board of Governors wishes to advise parents that annual increases have been in the order of 2 - 8% in recent years. The BJAB fees remain exceptionally competitive in relation to other school fees in Brussels.

Payment of Fees

Fees are payable in advance either termly or for the entire school year according to the Schedule of Fees. No student will be admitted or allowed to remain unless arrangements for the payment of fees have been made. New students entering in the course of the school year will receive an invoice before entry; payment is required within 2 weeks. It remains the responsibility of parents to ensure that the school fees have been paid according to the Schedule of Fees, irrespective of the support that they might receive from their employer.
