International schools in Bali: what they charge in 2026/27

Every figure on this page comes from a fee schedule or web page the school publishes itself, read on 10 November 2026. Each price is for the school year (or, for AIS Bali, the calendar year) that the school's own document covers. We have not asked any school for a price, and no school has paid to be here. This page is never sponsored and never ranked. Schools are listed in alphabetical order, and nothing here says one school is better than another.

Key figures

• Published annual tuition for the 2026/27 school year runs from Rp14,000,000 (half-day playgroup, Sanur Independent School) to Rp328,600,900 (Grades 11-12, Green School Bali).
• For a new child entering the first primary year in 2026/27, our sums of each school's published one-off fees, levies, deposits and tuition run from Rp112,700,000 to Rp330,063,690. AIS Bali's sum uses its calendar year 2026 fees.

The grade-by-grade table above this guide is also in our Bali Price Index.

How much does the first year at a Bali international school cost?

For one new child entering the first primary year, each school's published fees add up to between Rp112,700,000 and Rp330,063,690 for 2026/27 (calendar year 2026 at AIS Bali). Tuition is only part of the bill in the first year. Most schools add one or more of these:

• An application fee, paid before anyone looks at your file, usually non-refundable.
• A registration or enrolment fee, usually paid when you accept a place, and at some schools again each year.
• A capital, development or facilities levy, sometimes once, sometimes every year.
• A materials, resources or technology levy, usually every year.
• A deposit, sometimes refunded when your child leaves with proper notice, sometimes offset against the next invoice.

To show what that means in rupiah, we added up each school's own published figures for one new child entering the first primary year, as each school names it, at the annual rate where the school publishes one. These are our sums of the schools' numbers, not quotes. Refundable deposits are included because you hand over the money at the start; we say where.

What goes into each sum:

• AIS Bali: application Rp2,000,000, registration Rp5,000,000, refundable notice deposit Rp5,000,000, tuition Rp128,750,000, capital levy Rp25,000,000, materials levy Rp6,400,000. These are AIS's fees for calendar year 2026, not a 2026/27 school year.
• Bali Island School: application Rp2,500,000, tuition Rp208,952,000, capital levy charge Rp25,675,000. The yearly Rp15,000,000 registration fee is taken off tuition, so it is not added.
• Canggu Community School: application Rp2,500,000, registration Rp17,000,000 (first child), capital levy Rp21,500,000, materials levy Rp9,000,000, refundable notice deposit Rp50,000,000, tuition Rp162,000,000. The school's fee page states a 5% discount for fees paid in full for the year.
• Dyatmika School: admission fee Rp46,100,000, resources fee Rp5,764,000, tuition Rp101,680,000. A Rp15,000,000 deposit is paid within three days of acceptance and then set against the next invoice.
• Green School Bali: application Rp4,000,000, registration Rp36,000,000, refundable deposit Rp30,000,000, tuition Rp249,263,690, and two charges per family each year: Local Scholar levy Rp8,500,000 and parent programmes Rp2,300,000.

How do fee structures differ between schools?

The same fee name can mean different things from one school to the next. The 2026/27 schedules differ on whether a fee is charged once or every year, whether it is per child or per family, how much more instalments cost, and how deposits are returned.

One-off or every year. The same word means different things at different schools. Canggu Community School and Uluwatu School charge their capital levy every year. Sanur Independent School charges it once per stage of schooling. Dyatmika charges its admission fee on entry to each level of the school, including Class 1, Class 6, Class 7 and Class 10. Bali Island School charges its capital levy with the first tuition invoice.

Per child or per family. Green School Bali's Local Scholar levy and parent programmes fee are charged once per family. Canggu Community School charges its capital and materials levies for the first two children only. Bali Island School charges its capital levy for the first two children in families with three or more.

How you pay changes the price. Several schools charge less for paying the year at once, or more for paying in instalments. Bali Island School adds 1.5% for four instalments. Green School Bali adds 3% for semester payments and 8% for termly payments. Lycée Français de Bali takes 7% off for paying in full before 15 May 2026 and adds 1.5% for three instalments. Uluwatu School adds 3% for semester payments. AIS Bali builds a 5% reduction into its annual rate.

Deposits. Canggu Community School holds Rp50,000,000 from Year 1 (Rp25,000,000 for Early Years) and returns it with a full term's written notice. Green School Bali holds Rp30,000,000 per child; under its terms the deposit is not refunded if the child leaves before the 12-month minimum enrolment. AIS Bali (Rp5,000,000), Pelangi School (Rp10,000,000) and Uluwatu School (Rp10,000,000) also hold refundable deposits.

Extras you will see later. Where schools publish them, exam fees for IGCSE, A Level, the IB Diploma and the French Baccalauréat are charged on top of tuition. Dyatmika collects an advance of Rp20,000,000 for 2026 Class 10 Cambridge exams. Bali Island School charges the rupiah equivalent of USD 185 per IB exam. Lycée Français de Bali adds Rp5,000,000 in Terminale for the Baccalauréat. English language support is also charged separately at some schools: Green School Bali Rp10,000,000 a term, ProEd Rp21,000,000 a year.

Fee year. AIS Bali publishes its fees for calendar year 2026 and charges its levies for January to December. The other schools here publish for the 2026/27 school year.

Which curriculum does each school teach?

The schools on this page describe IB, Cambridge, French and other programmes on their own websites, read on 10 November 2026. As each school describes itself:

Which schools are listed without fees?

Two schools on this page had no 2026/27 fee schedule on their websites on 10 November 2026: ACS Bali and Gandhi Memorial Intercontinental School Bali. ACS Bali's fee page says its fees are being finalised and will be confirmed. The fee page on the Gandhi Memorial Intercontinental School Bali site shows a 2022-2023 schedule, which we have not used. Ask both schools for their 2026/27 schedule in writing.

What is an SPK school?

An SPK, or Satuan Pendidikan Kerja Sama, is a school run under a cooperation between a foreign and an Indonesian education body. The rules are set by Regulation of the Minister of Education and Culture Number 31 of 2014 (Permendikbud No. 31 Tahun 2014) on cooperation between foreign and Indonesian education institutions. Under Article 11(3) of that regulation, the curriculum for Indonesian students at an SPK must include religion, Pancasila and civics, and Bahasa Indonesia. AIS Bali, Canggu Community School and Dyatmika School each state that they are SPK schools.

Pelangi School states that from Grade 1 a non-Indonesian child needs a dependent or student KITAS to attend school in Indonesia. This is not legal or immigration advice, and rules change. Confirm with the school and with the Directorate General of Immigration before you enrol. Our guide to long-stay visas sets out what the immigration pages say about bringing family.
