Scone Grammar School Fees & Payments

The school year is divided into four terms beginning in January, April, July and October each year. Tuition Fees are charged at the commencement of each term except for Year 12 fees which are paid over the first three terms. Payment terms are 14 days from receipt of invoice. Annual tuition fees may be paid in full at the commencement of the school year. This attracts a discount of 5% from the net annual tuition fee if full payment is received by the last day of February. No discount is given on the Resource Activity Levy.
