Primary

All Grade 6 students are assessed using the official Cambridge Assessment to determine their readiness for Secondary School. Nova Pioneer is charged a fee for this by Cambridge International, which in turn is payable by families of Grade 6 students. This fee will be included on your January statement.

Cambridge assessment costs are indicative and are subject to change, with exchange rate fluctuations.

Grade 6 approx R1,837

Please note:

● The above Cambridge assessment and examination costs are billed to Nova Pioneer in Great British Pounds but are billed to parents in Rands, as above. As such these costs above are subject to change, due to exchange rate fluctuations.

● For any subjects that require the student to re-write, an additional per-subject assessment/examination will be levied to the fee account.

● Actual fees owing will be charged to the fee statement, once students’ official registration is complete.

The school offers all current Novaneer families a fee discount of R3,500 (on their own child’s fees) for each new student referral. 

This discount will only apply if the student referred is successfully admitted to the school. This referral discount is only applicable to the first year of fees.
