What’s included in your fees
Your school fees cover all textbooks and curriculum-based day trips during term time. That means no surprise costs for the essentials that support your child’s learning.
Residential trips are charged separately, and overseas trips are optional extras. We’ll always give you plenty of notice about these, along with a clear payment schedule.
What’s not included
For families with students in Year 11 and above, public exam fees (GCSE, IGCSE, BTEC, AS and A-levels) will be added to the summer term invoice. These charges reflect the actual cost of the exams your child is sitting, tailored to their individual subject choices. As a guide, current costs range from:
GCSE students: £400–£600
A-level students: £350–£500
We’ll be in touch during the spring term with a breakdown of exam entries and associated fees, so everything is clear and transparent.
If your child receives a means-tested bursary of 50% or more, exam fees are fully covered. For bursary awards below 50%, a proportional reduction will apply.
Lunch at Oxford High School
Lunch is part of the school day for all pupils up to the end of Year 11. In Sixth Form, students have more flexibility and they can bring lunch from home, eat out, or buy lunch on-site.
Dining Hall: Sixth Formers can purchase lunch using vouchers bought from the Café.
Café 6 (Ada Benson Building): Card payments are accepted for lunch purchases.
School bus network
Oxford High School operates a mini bus service in partnership with Vectare. Bookings should be made through our Transport pages where you can also find details of routes, charges and conditions for using the service.
Sibling discount
Families with three or more daughters attending GDST schools at the same time are eligible for a 20% fee discount for the third and any subsequent daughters.
Once awarded, the discount stays with the pupil until she leaves the school even if the number of siblings drops below three. It’s not transferable between siblings and is usually applied to the youngest daughter in the school.
