Designated by the WCED as a quintile 5 school, the school fees ensure that affordability remains a priority.
Our school fees for 2025 were decided at the Budget Meeting held in November 2024. Fees are reviewed annually. As with all WCED schools, it is a legislated requirement for the School Governing Body to make provision for financial assistance, and this facility is available at CHS.
While recognising the diversity of means among the Claremont High School community, it remains essential for all parents to prioritise the payment of fees, as these fees are essential for the school to provide all the facilities required to support an excellent educational environment.
Fees for 2025: R15 800 per learner per annum
FEES COLLECTION 2025
Fees may be paid in one of the following ways:
