Reading the fee schedule
- The hidden fees catalogue: the £30,000 to £70,000 your school will charge that is not in the tuition schedule.
- The fee inflation trap: how £18,000 in Year 1 becomes £32,000 by Year 13.
- The British family's decision framework for international schools in Asia.
- Where the £25,000 actually goes: the international school operating budget nobody publishes.
How The Baht records school fees
Every figure comes from the school's own website or fee document, recorded with its URL and the date it was checked. Alternative or special-case one-off fees (per-family rates, boarding deposits, waiting-list fees) are listed on the school pages but not added into totals. Corrections: editorial@thebaht.com.
