FAQ’s
Can you provide a class list? When can we start to meet other parents?Due to GDPR regulations, we are not able to distribute class
lists, however we are able to share parent contact details with the new Class
Reps, who usually aim to organise some get-togethers over the course of the
summer holiday before school begins.
You will, of course, also have the opportunity to
start meeting fellow new parents at our induction events.
When will I receive the first invoice and when is the first fee payment due?
All fees matters are handled centrally by the GDST Trust Office. In August, the Trust office will send you your invoice (usually by email) for the first fee payment.
For all new starters, the first school fee payment will be due on the first day of term.
What date is the direct debit payment taken?
For those paying by monthly Direct Debit, fees are split into 12 equal amounts and payment will be due on (or the next working day after) the 5th day of each month.
For those paying by termly Direct Debit, fees are split into 3 equal amounts and payment will be due on the first day of each term
