2025 School Fee Payment Options
As in previous years, in 2025 parents/guardians will not be required to re-select a preferred school fee payment method and frequency at the start of the school year from the parent portal.
The payment method (direct debit, or credit card, or BPAY) and frequency of payment (annual upfront, weekly, fortnightly, monthly, or three or four instalments) that you had in place in 2024 will continue automatically in 2025.
The 2025 dates for payments are:
- 1 upfront payment due on 31 January 2025 (2 per cent discount); or
- 43 weekly payments starting on Monday 3 February 2025; or
- 22 fortnightly payments starting on Monday 3 February 2025; or
- 22 fortnightly payments starting on Monday 10 February 2025; or
- 10 monthly payments starting on Sunday 2 February 2025; or
- 10 monthly payments starting on Monday 17 February 2025; or
- 3 instalments on 18 February 2025, 18 May 2025 and 18 August 2025; or
- 4 instalments on 10 February 2025, 10 May 2025, 10 August 2025 and 10 October 2025.
Where a due date falls on a weekend or public holiday, payment will be processed on the next business day.
You will not be required to take any action, unless you would like to change the method of payment or frequency of payments. In which case, please contact the Accounts Receivable team on 9243 2103 or email accountsreceivable@ststephens.wa.edu.au as soon as possible.
