School fees: questions parents ask

How much are the 2027 school fees at Sunward Christian Academy?

Tuition for new enrolments in 2027 starts at R2 350 a month for Grade RR and goes up to R7 200 a month for Grade 11. Grade R is R3 300 a month, Grade 1 to 9 is between R5 700 and R5 900 a month, and Grade 10 is R7 100 a month. To compare every grade, choose “All grades” in the fee finder above.

Do I pay all three payment options?

No. You choose one way to pay tuition: monthly (12 payments, by the 3rd of each month), twice a year (in January and June), or once a year (by 3 January 2027). Each option covers the full year's tuition.

Is there a discount for paying upfront?

Yes. Paying once a year saves R1 400 (Grade RR) to R4 400 (Grade 11) compared with paying monthly. Paying twice a year saves R700 to R2 200.

Is there a discount for families with more than one child?

Yes. Qualifying families with more than one child at SCA get a 2.5% family discount on monthly tuition fees. It doesn't apply to registration or re-registration fees, levies or other charges.

How and when do I pay school fees?

Monthly fees are paid in advance, on or before the 3rd of each month. Pay by EFT into the school's bank account, or use the secure Netcash payment link the school provides. Your fee statement shows the banking details and your payment reference, or ask the Finance Department. Always use the correct reference so your payment is allocated to your account.

What does registration cost, and what's included?

The registration package costs R4 300 to R5 500, depending on the grade, and is paid when you register. It includes registration and the annual copying fee, plus uniform items for most grades: two T-shirts (Grade RR–6), a tie (Grade 8–9) or a shirt (Grade 10–11). For Grade RR and R it also includes Make & Bake, stationery packs and workbooks.

Are textbooks included in the school fees?

From Grade 1, textbooks and exercise books are a separate payment, due by 30 November 2026. They cost R3 250 (Grade 1–3), R3 600 (Grade 4–6), R5 500 (Grade 7), R6 400 (Grade 8), R6 700 (Grade 9), R7 600 (Grade 10) and R7 800 (Grade 11). For Grade RR and R, workbooks are included in the registration package.

Is there aftercare, and what does it cost?

Yes, for Grade RR to Grade 6. Aftercare costs R880 a month and includes school-holiday care, except in December.

How are school fees set each year?

Fees are reviewed once a year as part of the school's budget and approval process. The review considers inflation and running costs, staff salaries and keeping qualified teachers, learning resources and technology, the upkeep, security and development of the campuses, and the school's long-term sustainability. Parents are told the next year's fees in advance so they can plan.
