Schedule of Charges for the Academic Year 2024/2025
The Governing Body and the Board of Management have agreed the charges for the academic year 2024/2025:
The above charges are per student per term (there are 3 terms in an academic year). The charges will be reviewed again for September 2025.
Our fees are significantly lower than that of almost every other UK boarding school because the Royal Alexandra and Albert School is a state boarding school. It is a state-maintained, voluntary-aided school, rather than an independent or private school.
The Government has confirmed that state boarding schools will be exempt from the new VAT levy on school fees. As a result, while our fees will continue to be reviewed annually, there will be no increase arising from the 20% VAT. It is important to note that this is subject to Government policy.
These will be reviewed annually.
There are no compulsory exeats for Boarders.
Information about riding activity charges and the EC Pro booking system can be found on our Equestrian Centre page HERE.
Please note all riding activities must be booked through EC Pro and are no longer included on the termly school fees invoice. Notice of one term in advance must be given to cancel the termly riding club.
Music lessons are available for all orchestral instruments, harp, drums, piano, organ, recorder, voice, classical guitar, electric guitar, bass and drums.
Lessons are charged at around £24 per lesson. Pupils need to provide their own instruments.
A full term’s notice in advance must be given if music lessons are no longer required. Please note that the contract for individual music lessons is between the visiting music teacher and the parent(s).

Please note that staff check their e-mail regularly but parents should not count on a message being read until the next day.
