Fees
Fees overview

- International School of Lund (ISLK) is funded by the City of Lund and there are no tuition or school fees for compulsory PYP and MYP education; standard schooling at ISLK carries no term or annual tuition charge.

Application fees

- There is no application fee for admission to ISLK as part of the municipal school offering; families do not pay an application charge to apply for a place.

Tuition fees by year group (per term / per school year)

- Early Years, Primary Years (PYP1–PYP6) and Middle Years (MYP1–MYP5):
- Per term: SEK 0.
- Per school year: SEK 0.
- Rationale: ISLK is municipally funded; compulsory-school education places do not carry tuition or school fees.

Fees for pre-school (Early Years) and After School Programme (ASP)

- Early Years (pre-school) and the After School Programme are fee-based services charged to families according to household income; fees for these services are calculated monthly and paid to the municipality rather than as school tuition.

- How charges are calculated (municipal system):
- Fees are based on the household's gross taxable income and the number and ages of children; a percentage of income applies with maximum monthly caps. Examples of monthly maximum caps used in the municipal fee schedule:
- Children aged 1–2 years: first child max SEK 1,547/month; second child max SEK 1,031/month; third child max SEK 516/month; fourth child no charge.
- Children aged 3–5 years: first child max SEK 1,237/month; second child max SEK 825/month; third child max SEK 412/month; fourth child no charge.
- Fritidshem (6–12 years): first child max SEK 1,031/month; second child max SEK 516/month; third child max SEK 361/month; fourth child no charge.
- The municipality applies a maxtaxa threshold for highest charges (monthly-income threshold is published by the municipality). Fees for childcare and ASP are invoiced monthly.

- Specific ASP terms:
- The ASP is a fee-based service open during stated hours; fees for ASP are charged 12 months of the year. Cancellation requires advance notification and there is a defined notice period and charge for the notice period.

Billing schedule and payment terms

- Invoicing: Municipal invoices for childcare/ASP are normally issued around the 13th–15th of each month for the current month. The monthly invoice covers the place (not hours attended); no pro rata reduction is made for absences. Uppsägningstid (notice period) for preschool and fritids is two months; for ASP there is a specified cancellation rule with charges for the notice period.

- Payment frequency: Fees for ASP and municipal childcare are charged monthly and (for ASP) collected 12 months per year. Adjustments may be made after the municipality's annual income reconciliation.

Boarding fees

- Boarding is not applicable at ISLK; there are no boarding places and therefore no boarding fees. ISLK operates as a municipal day school.

Other costs or fees (uniforms, lunches, trips, materials, extracurriculars)

- School lunch: All students are served one warm meal per school day; school meals in the Swedish compulsory school system are provided as part of the school day.

- Voluntary/occasional costs: Certain optional activities or items (for example voluntary school trips, specialised materials, instrument hire or optional external activities) may involve charges that are arranged separately and, where applicable, are requested on a voluntary basis according to applicable regulations. The municipality administers charges and any specific fees for optional services or programme extras.

- Mother-tongue classes and other extracurricular provisions: Some supplementary offerings are organised through municipal arrangements; where a fee applies (for example some childcare-related services), the fee is calculated according to municipal rules. Application forms and any required income declaration are part of the admissions/process for fee-calculated services.

Refund and cancellation information

- ASP cancellation: A written notice is required; you must hand in a notification of leaving two calendar months before the last attendance date and you will be charged for 60 days from the day the notice is handed in (the ASP defines its specific cancellation rule).

- Preschool/fritids cancellation and adjustments: The municipal notice period for preschool and fritids is two months; the municipality performs an annual income reconciliation and will adjust fees (invoice or refund) if income information changes.

Fee payment options

- Payment methods offered through the municipality include direct debit (autogiro) and standard municipal invoicing (invoices can be received in the user's digital mailbox). Specific payment channels and instructions follow municipal invoicing procedures. Parents are required to provide income documentation where fees are income-based.

Summary (key points for parents)

- There is no tuition or school fee for ISLK's compulsory schooling (PYP and MYP): Per term and per year amounts are SEK 0.
- Early Years (pre-school) and After School Programme are fee-based and charged according to household income with defined monthly caps and municipal billing procedures; these are billed monthly and have municipal notice and cancellation rules.
