Regulation 7 Payment of fees
The fees for an assisted pupil for any school year (other than in respect of entrance fees for public examinations) shall be payable in respect of each term and, subject to any variation in fees in the course of the school year, the fees payable in respect of each term shall be a third of those payable for the whole of that year.
Subject to paragraphs (3) and (4), a school shall not make it a condition of the attendance of any assisted pupil that any payment be made to the school otherwise than in respect of fees, or into a fund (including a bursary or similar fund) specified by the school.
Where—
an offer of assistance with boarding fees was made by the school (or in pursuance of arrangements to which the school is a party) in respect of an assisted pupil at the time when he was offered an assisted place at the school for the purposes of the assisted places scheme, and
that offer was conditional on his taking up a boarding place,
the school may make it a condition of his attendance that boarding fees be paid.
Where paragraph (3) does not apply, the school may at any time offer a boarding place in respect of an assisted pupil, and if the offer is accepted and, for as long as the pupil remains a boarder at the school, make it a condition of his attendance that boarding fees be paid.
