IB day & boarding, ages 3 to 18
See a whole school day before you fly in.
Most families choose us from another country. So we've put the campus here: turn it, pick your child's age, and follow their day from the gate at 7:40 to the last bell. The full fees are below too, not behind an email.
A day at Nuru, for a child in…
Fees
The whole number, up front.
The figure most schools make you email for: this year, every extra, and the total to graduation including the yearly rise. Change anything and it recalculates.
Fees have risen 4 to 6% a year for the last five years, so we assume 5%. The refundable $2,000 deposit is returned when your child leaves and isn't counted above.
Admissions
From first call to first day.
Most families finish the whole process remotely in three to four weeks. You'll have one person in admissions from start to finish, not a different inbox each time.
Live tour
A 30-minute video walk of the campus with admissions, at a time that suits your time zone.
Apply
An online form, the last two school reports and a $250 application fee.
Meet us
A friendly online assessment and a chat with the head of section. It's about placing your child well, not ranking them.
Offer
A decision within ten working days of the meeting, with a named class teacher.
Settle in
A buddy family, uniform sent ahead, and an induction day before term starts.

Questions parents ask
Before you ask.
Can my child join mid-year?
Yes, where there's a place. We have two main intakes, January and August, and we'll always say honestly if a year group is full.
What if English isn't their first language?
Our English as an Additional Language team works in class and in small groups. Most children are fully in class within two terms.
How does boarding work for younger students?
Boarding starts at 11. Each house has live-in house parents, a matron, and set times for calls home. Weekly boarding is available too.
Is the day on the map what really happens?
Yes, it's the current timetable for each section. Clubs rotate each term, so the afternoon can vary.
Do you offer scholarships?
Yes, a small number for IB entry, covering 25 to 100% of tuition. They're awarded on merit and need. Ask during your live tour.
