School Fees 2020-2021

IMS provides a bus service to and from each of its four campuses covering nearly all parts of Hong Kong Island (Read More). Uniforms are also purchased from an outside company. The costs of field trips and some student activities are charged through the school. Camp and other Outdoor Education programmes are an important part of an IMS education, and are invoiced to parents annually.

Capital instruments are established by the International Montessori Education Foundation Limited (IMEF) from time to time to ensure sufficient funds are available for capital improvements such as new premises, buildings and equipment, as well as enhancements to the school environment and learning programmes.

Limited Priority contribution options which offer priority of assessment and place are available upon request.

After interview and acceptance, all students not covered by a Priority instrument who enroll in the Casa dei Bambini or Elementary programmes at IMS accept a place offer through the purchase of one of the following:

1) Personal Nomination Right ("PNR")
The Personal Nomination Right is issued in the name of the parent, who may nominate one Eligible Child (the "Nominee") for a place in the Casa dei Bambini and/or Elementary programme at the School, after interview and acceptance. It is non-interest bearing, non-transferable and non-refundable. The rights under the PNR apply to the Nominee immediately upon offer of admission to the School. The current cost of a Personal Nomination Right is HK$120,000, which is paid to confirm acceptance of a place.

2) Annual Capital Levy
The Annual Capital Levy may be used to confirm a place in the Casa dei Bambini and/or Elementary programme at the School, after interview and acceptance. It is non-interest bearing, non-transferable and non-refundable and subject to annual adjustment at the discretion of IMEF. The Annual Capital Levy for the 2020-21 year is  HK$35,000 per year.

3) Capital Note
A Capital Note is issued in the name of the parent, who may nominate one Eligible Child for a place in the Casa dei Bambini programme at the School, after interview and acceptance. It is non-transferable. The Capital Note Principal Amount is currently HK$150,000. Upon withdrawal from or completion of the Casa dei Bambini programme, the Capital Note will be redeemed by IMEF at HK$90,000, less any outstanding Tuition and Fees.  Such redemption amount may be applied to any additional Capital Contribution required for the child to attend IMS Elementary at such time, upon assessment and acceptance into the Elementary Programme.
