Important Notes
Admission Procedure:

Priority for Admission is given to:
- Existing students in the current academic year
- Siblings of current students
Places are subject to availability. You will be notified by letter when the school has an offer for your child.
The first installment of the tuition (i.e. one month’s tuition fee) is required to be paid in the admission procedure. This fee, if paid, will not be refunded or, if not yet paid, will still be collected, even if the parents choose to withdraw the child’s enrollment at PIPS before the starting of the class.
In case there are more applicants than vacancies available, the school reserves the right to allocate places based on the order of submission, age and other considerations.

Payment of Tuitions Fees:

Tuition fees for each academic year are annual and are payable in 11-month consecutive and equal installments from the months of August to June inclusive, regardless of school holidays or absences.
Tuition fee is to be paid by the 1st of each month. A 10 % surcharge per month will be levied for any debt outstanding until the student’s account is clear.
Tuition fees of Pre-Nursery, Nursery, LKG and UKG must be settled by Direct Debit Authorisation (AUTOPAY). For corporate payments, PIPS will invoice the company directly and it is the responsibility of the parents to ensure that the payment is made on time. Parents can voluntarily choose to pay on a quarterly or half-yearly basis.
** In the event of an “enforced” school closure due to health alerts, payment collection remains unchanged. **

You are welcome to visit the school. Please call the school office to make an appointment for a visit.

Please Note:

Fees may apply for transfer between different banks. The remitter has to pay for any charges incurred by both the remitting bank and beneficiary bank.
Please provide the scanned transfer slip / screen capture of online transfer acknowledgment by uploading to the online application system.

Withdrawal Note:
For the withdrawal of a student *ONE FULL CALENDAR MONTH* advance notice in writing is required prior to the last date of a student's attendance. The parents are required to pay for their children's tuition fee up to the last month which the withdrawal notice serves. (One full calendar month means from the first day of a month to the last day of that month. If the last day of study is not the last or the first day of a month, then withdrawal notice will need to be served more than 1 month in advance.)

Immediate Withdrawal:
For immediate withdrawal, tuition fees previously paid will not be refunded. A full month is charged even if only part of the month has been attended.

Remarks

Applications for future enrollment due to unavailability of places or other reasons will be placed on the waiting list. When a place becomes available, the school will contact the parents.
PIPS gives priority to existing students to re-register for the next term. If no payment is received after the due date for paying tuition fees, the place will be allocated to other applicants without further notifying the parents.
Children transferring from Under 2's Programme may enter the Pre-Nursery as and when they become 2 years old, if there is a place available, and if an application form for the Pre-Nursery has been submitted. The last month for children to move from Under 2's Programme to Pre-Nursery is April.
If a child’s birthday falls in the middle of the month, for their entry into the Pre-Nursery (e.g. 9th February), they will not be able to start in the Pre-Nursery until their actual birthday. This is an EDB regulation.
A child starting mid-month in the Pre-Nursery will not be able to stay in the Under 2's Programme until their birthday unless Under 2's Programme and Pre-Nursery fees are both paid for that month.
Please note that children who turn 2 after 31st December and then go to the Pre-Nursery will have to repeat the Pre-Nursery year, again an EDB requirement.
