Charges
Education at Stourfield is free but there are some ‘extras’ for which we, unfortunately, have to ask for payment:
Day Visits
In order to bring our teaching ‘alive’ and to motivate our children, we try to arrange appropriate day visits to places of interest. These involve transport costs and entrance fees that we are unable to meet from normal funds and we therefore have to ask for voluntary contributions from parents. It is school policy that no child is ever excluded from a day visit through inability to pay.
Residential Visits
We have a tradition at Stourfield of providing our Year 6 and Year 4 children with the opportunity of working away from school while staying in a residential centre. We make every effort to ensure that no child is excluded from a residential visit by the inability to pay but the larger sums of money involved means that we are not always able to find the funds to support the full cost for such children.
Instrumental Lessons
The school offers children the opportunity to learn to play a musical instrument in a group under the tuition of a visiting teacher from Absolute Music. These lessons are provided under the terms of the school’s Instrumental Lessons Policy. There is a termly charge payable in advance which is reviewed annually and stands at £57.50.
