Conditions of acceptance and placement at IPS.

Acceptance and placement:

Pupils enter IPS at the age of three into our Nursery Year. Other students enter from overseas.

Parents applying for entrance at the nursery level must contact the school at least two years prior to entry for registration. This does not mean a confirmed place. Brothers and sisters have automatic entry if the school is able to cater for them.

Confirmation of places is given in March for entry in September.

The school has specific entry criteria for the Nursery class, and all subsequent admissions are only after assessment and interview.

Waiting list

Due to overwhelming demand the school often has waiting lists for most classes and the Nursery class in particular. Parents from overseas are strongly advised to wait for confirmation of their child's admission before finalising their plans to move to Mauritius.

Registration Fee

The registration fee is payable on reception of a letter of confirmation from the school. If a student accepts the place, the fee is not refunded should the student not join the school.

Fees

School fees are paid by monthly instalment (payable over 10 months of the year - September to June). The book scheme, insurance, subcription to PA and the investment - funding loan are paid annually.

Mauritian students pay slightly less than non-Mauritian. The registration fee is a one-time payment made before a student enters the school. The current fee schedule is available from the school accounts department.

  • To qualify for Mauritian fees a student must have one parent who is a Mauritian national, and be in possession of a Mauritian birth certificate or be registered in a parent's Mauritian passport.
  • School fees are payable in advance and only by banker's standing order.
  • There is a 10% discount on monthly fees for a third and all subsequent children.
  • One full terms notice (four months) must be given in writing to IPS when withdrawing a student, or the term fee will be charged in lieu.
  • No refund will be given on pupil expulsion.

When fees are outstanding, the school reserves the right to send home or suspend a student.

Insurance

School insurance is obligatory. The insurance cover taken by the school is a 24hr worldwide coverage for up to Rs50,000.

Parents' Association

All parents are required to be members of the PA, and should make every effort to participate in its functions. The PA's objectives are to provide assistance to the school for school-approved activities, fund-raising projects, and social functions to foster and enhance the school community.

Admission Policy (Enrolment Procedure)

A separate form listing the school fees etc, is normally signed by the parents or guardian before admission to the school. The information listed below is for information purposes only.

Capital Levy:

For Mauritian students:

Rs25,000 for parents entering their first child in our school

Rs15,000 for parents who already have children in our establishment.

For non-Mauritian students:

Rs40,000 for parents entering their first child in our school

Rs20,000 for parents already having children in our establishment

These are non refundable

Deposit: All non-Mauritian pupils shall pay a deposit on one term's fees when entering the school, which is refundable on the child's departure.
