‘Force Majeure’

Should the school be permanently closed down, the School will endeavour to reimburse any undelivered services in line with legal contractual precedence. This means prior to refunding any tuition fees we would fulfil our obligation to make payments to teachers and other parties that may take legal precedence over tuition fees. In this event we would also expect the fulfilment of these obligations would be completed over a 12 month period.

Deferral

Due to the dynamic nature of the situation globally, some families may wish to take semester one out of the School and return in semester two. Any families considering this must contact our Admissions Team to provide this advice and access the details.

During any such period, Green School English will be continuously delivered via an adapted distance learning program for the duration of the course.
