PREP ADDITIONAL CHARGES
There are a number of services and opportunities at the Prep School that are available as additional extras above the baseline fee; the amounts below are what parents will pay including VAT where appropriate.
| AFTERCARE |
Aftercare provision is available from 3:30pm to 5:30pm for pupils in Reception to Year 2; this is run by our qualified teaching staff, and includes planned activities each day along with free play, a drink and a snack. Aftercare Fee (Reception to Year 2): £13.50 per hour Late Collection Fee: £15 |
| ADDITIONAL BOARDING NIGHTS |
| Any other boarding nights not included in the fee will be charged at a rate of £88 per night. Depending on the activities and trips on offer that day/night, there may be some additional charges. |
| BREAKFAST & SUPPER |
| A charge of £5.50 per meal is made for Day pupils wanting to eat breakfast and/or supper at school. This must be booked in advance and is subject to availability. |
| EXEAT WEEKENDS |
Our Exeat Weekends at the Prep school are voluntary, meaning boarders can opt to remain at school for an additional charge (subject to a minimum of 3 pupils). Please contact Hatton House for more information. Weekend Charge: £175 (2 nights) May 2027 Extended Exeat Weekend: £260 (3 nights) |
| INDIVIDUAL MUSIC & LAMDA LESSONS |
For pupils wanting to hone their expressive skills, whether taking up a new instrument, developing already established skills, or delving deeper into dramatics, we have a number of specialist teachers who offer individual lessons at school. Music and LAMDA lessons are either 20 or 40 mins. Hourly Lesson Rate: £48 Paired LAMDA lessons are also available. Music and LAMDA lessons are charged in advance. Parents’ contracts for music and LAMDA lessons are almost always directly with the individual teachers rather than the school, therefore we are unable to put this charge on the school bill. We believe this gives our families the best value for money, and allows us to offer a broad range of instruments. If parents wish to stop their music lessons, they should inform the music teacher with at least half a term’s notice. Where music and LAMDA lessons are billed by the school, we are required to add 20% VAT onto the above costs. |
| ENGLISH AS AN ADDITIONAL LANGUAGE (EAL) |
Years 6-8 Termly Charge: £800 The EAL charge is for the standard provision in each year group; there may be an additional charge for bespoke 1:1 lessons where necessary to enable access to our mainstream curriculum.
|
| LEARNING SUPPORT |
Our superb Learning Support team provide tailored and structured support for a range of additional learning needs. Termly Charges for 1 session per week 1-1 Tuition Nursery - Year 2 (30 mins): £380 Year 3-8 (40 mins): £560
Shared Tuition Nursery - Year 2 (30 mins): £260 Year 3-8 (40 mins): £380
Additional 1-1 support is charged at £22.80 per hour |
We endeavour to keep extra charges to a minimum, but where necessary will charge extra costs that are specific to individuals or groups of pupils and which are non-compulsory, for example:
- Certain materials required for practical subjects or activities (e.g. Art & DT)
- School publications
- Hire of musical instruments and cost of music accessories/sheet music
- Theatre and other curriculum related trips
- Transport and escort charges for dental/medical appointments
- Activity trips
