Bus, Uniforms and Other Costs 

IMS provides a bus service to and from each of its four campuses covering nearly all parts of Hong Kong Island. 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 Contribution Plan

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. 

All students not covered by a Priority instrument who enrolled in the Casa dei Bambini or Elementary programmes at IMS accept a place offer through the purchase of one of the Capital Contribution options described below.

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 acceptance of a place offer to the School. The 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 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 current year is HK$35,000 per year per child.

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.

The Annual Capital Levy entitles the student to attend the Casa dei Bambini or Elementary Programmes at IMS, while the Capital Note entitles the student to attend the Casa dei Bambini programme only.
