Yes. Fees almost always rise from early years through to sixth form, reflecting more specialist teaching, smaller classes and exam programmes in the senior years. The age-group breakdown above shows the typical step-up in Guangzhou.

What isn't included in the tuition fee?+

Published tuition usually excludes one-off costs such as application and registration fees, a refundable deposit, uniforms, school buses, meals, trips and exam entry. Ask each school for a full fee schedule before you budget.

Are more expensive international schools better?+
