This is a deposit to confirm your child’s place for our Music Afterschool @ IIMS for September 2025 and it is non refundable. It will be taken into account of the first month’s deposit and tuition fees. If you are applying for siblings, you will need to pay a deposit for each child.

For example, if the fees are €400 and we require a month’s tuition as deposit on the first month, you will pay €600 instead of €800.

*Please note that we are currently working on having NCS funding in place for September 2025*
