DAS has kept our fees affordable for our parents over the years. This increase and update on fee structure are necessary for DAS to reduce the financial deficit caused by increasing operational costs as we strive to maintain quality programmes and services.
For Singaporean families who need financial assistance, bursaries ranging from 33% to 100% will continue to be available. Each year, DAS has to raise around over $2 million in donations to provide bursaries for needy students attending non-government-funded programmes and services, and the past pandemic year has been especially difficult for fundraising.
We have revised our Fees to reflect the increase in GST from 7% to 8%. All payments received on or after 1st January 2023, will be based on the revised table below:
