Fees 

At Benenden we are focused on offering great value within our fee structure. As a non-stop, thriving boarding school, girls here benefit from a bespoke curriculum which achieves excellent academic results and which provides huge added value in an environment where students are supported by a wide range of specialist experts.

Our
Fees

Our fees include the country’s finest programme of Weekend activities at no extra charge, as well as an exhaustive array of co-curricular opportunities and numerous curriculum trips. Our beautiful campus is in the perfect location.

Benenden is a happy and safe home from home with excellent pastoral care and 24/7 medical care. The quality and variety of our food is much admired and one of the many benefits of choosing a boarding school is that girls can make the most of the opportunities: students are in the gym, swimming pool or in the Music practice rooms in the mornings, at lunchtimes, evenings and weekends.

School fees are reviewed for each academic year and announcements are normally made in June.

For the 2026/27 academic year:

Boarding: £21,300 (including VAT) per term

Day: £15,400 (including VAT) per term

International Boarding Fee:
Students joining us from overseas into the Sixth Form are required to pay a 10 per cent premium on the base fee (prior to the VAT being added). This fee for the 2026/27 academic year is £23,390 (including VAT) for a boarding place per term.

Siblings:
Benenden is pleased to offer a discount of 10% of the School fees for the third daughter (and any subsequent daughters) from the same family. The elder daughters do not need to be current students for the family to qualify for the sibling discount.

Financial Assistance:
Benenden is also proud to offer financial assistance with fees, in the form of a means-tested bursary, to assist families with providing girls with a Benenden education.

Forces and Diplomatic Services Families:
Benenden is committed to supporting families who are in receipt of the UK government Continuity of Education Allowance (CEA) for Service or Diplomatic Children. We are therefore pleased to offer you additional financial support meaning that you will be required to pay 10% of the fee, plus your CEA allowance amount. The balance of the termly fee amount will be met by the School.

Our Admissions team would be happy to share more information on the many benefits of Benenden.
