TUITION FEES
& POLICIES
Fairfield International Academy is committed to providing a rigorous inquiry-based education that adheres to challenging, global standards while staying true to its Jamaican heritage. Fees that ensure the proper functioning of the school are a critical form of revenue for the school, and prompt payment of all fees is the responsibility of all Fairfield parents/guardians. In addition to allowing us to provide a high quality of education for your students, the fees are used to:
- provide competitive compensation for teaching, administrative and grounds staff,
- provide resources, materials, facilities and equipment,
- support the educational requirements of international accreditation, and
- maintain facilities.

Payment of Fees
Proof of payment of tuition fees must be given to the School Secretary on or before due date as stipulated on the invoice or sent via email to accounts@FairfieldAcademyJA.com
All payments received 10 working days after due date will incur a late payment fee of US$200 which will be applied to outstanding balances. If proof of payment has not been received by the School Secretary, including payment of all fee penalties by the first day of school, • the student will not be allowed to attend school until school fees have been paid, and the student will not receive any reports, transcripts, results and certificates.
Transferring Students
We appreciate that changing family circumstances will sometimes require that a student transfer to another school during the course of a school year. Fees will be payable for the whole of the term in which the enrolment is terminated, except in cases where the Head Principal determines that fair notice is given or that fair notice was impractical. Fair notice is deemed to be one semester.
