Payment of fees
Termly Payments
The Harpur Trust will send you an invoice for fees before the start of each term. This will normally be the first day of term but they will notify you of the payment date in advance. Payment should be made by direct debit, bank transfer, debit or credit card.
Monthly Payments
Fees can also be paid, by direct debit only, in nine equal instalments on predetermined dates (usually the first working day of the month or the first day of term if later).
Monthly basis | Divided into three termly payments | |
Autumn Term | September, October and November | |
Spring Term | January, February and March | |
Summer Term | May, June and July |
Any extra fees (i.e. school trips, additional school meals, if applicable), will be spread over the invoices for each term.
