Discounts and Employer Contributions

Family Discounts

Family discounts apply to families that are privately funding school fees at ELA Basel.

Discounts are only on the contracted schedule which sets the base fee: they do not apply to extra sessions (extra Standard Days, extra Extended Days, or extending Standard Days).

All ELA Basel students in your household, whether in Early Years or Primary School, qualify for the discount: that is to say, the base fees for each child will be reduced by the discount rate.

Please note family discounts do not apply to households where any part of the fees is being invoiced directly to an employer.

Employer Contributions

Some employers offer a contribution towards child-care fees.

It is the responsibility of the parent to inform ELA Basel of any possible employer-sponsored tuition and fees.  ELA Basel always confirms the level of support with each employer on an individual basis.

• In general, every offering from ELA Basel has all-inclusive pricing: we do not charge extra for transport or materials related to an activity.
• ELA Basel does not have a uniform, but children do require a school PE kit. This is bought, at cost, directly from us.
• Lost or damaged materials are billed at replacement cost.
