Fee Structure
King David is a world-class independent school and is consistently one of the best-performing schools in South Africa. This is further enhanced by our rich Jewish offering, outstanding facilities, extensive sports & cultural programme and safe and secure campuses, ensuring a well-rounded educational experience for every student. Our fees help us maintain these high standards, as we remain uncompromising in our commitment to excellence across all areas of school life.


Subsidy Program
King David is more than a school. It is a community where families become part of a lifelong network that extends well beyond the classroom or the years spent at school. This strong sense of community helps ensure that future generations of Jewish children continue to benefit from a King David education.
The South African Board of Jewish Education (SABJE) is committed to making a Jewish education accessible to all Jewish children. In support of this commitment, and with the help of the King David Schools’ Foundation and it’s alumni, financial assistance is available to Jewish families who are experiencing genuine financial difficulty and are unable to afford the full school fees.
Subsidy applications open annually from 15 July to 15 October. Parents wishing to apply will be required to complete an application form and submit the required financial information and supporting documentation for assessment.
If you would like to apply for school fee assistance, please email tshukuduf@sabje.co.za to request an application form.
