Registration fees (non-refundable), in addition to course fees:

  • €80 for onsite courses
  • €100 for the junior programme
  • €30 for online courses

The balance is due upon receipt of the final payment request, and no later than 30 days before the start date. In case of late registration (less than 30 days before the start date), full payment is required.

If payment is not received within 30 days of the start date, THE SCHOOL reserves the right to cancel the registration and, where applicable, the accommodation booking.

Payment methods (choice):

  • credit/debit card
  • bank transfer (bank details provided in the booking documents)
  • cheque in euros made payable to THE SCHOOL, provided payment is received at least 15 days before the start date

Payments must be made in euros. Bank charges are at the student’s expense.

1.2 For long stays requiring a visa to enter France

In the context of a registration requiring a visa/residence permit, the student agrees to start the visa application process early enough to ensure the proper completion of registration (at least 2 months in advance).

THE SCHOOL cannot be held responsible for entry or residence requirements in France, or any changes thereto.

A pre-registration letter will be sent by email after receipt of the deposit payment in accordance with Article 1.1 of these Terms and Conditions.

1.2.1 Visa granted

THE SCHOOL must be informed by the student as soon as the visa is granted by the French authorities.

Once the visa/residence permit is granted, and no later than 15 days before the start of classes, THE SCHOOL will request full payment of the remaining balance as stated in Article 1.1 of these Terms and Conditions.

If THE SCHOOL has not received the required information, a reminder email will be sent 15 days before the start of classes. If no reply is received within 72 hours, the booking procedure may be suspended and the authorities (embassy/prefecture) may be informed.

1.2.2 Delay in obtaining the visa

The student may keep the initial course start date or change it:

  • If the student wishes to keep the initial dates and is certain the visa will be issued in time, THE SCHOOL will request full payment of the remaining balance no later than 15 days before the start date.
  • If the student wishes to change the start date because the visa will be issued too late, the start date may be postponed once free of charge. This change implies that THE SCHOOL will provide a new pre-registration certificate with updated dates.
  • After the first postponement request, each additional postponement request will be charged €80. In that case, THE SCHOOL cannot guarantee the initial accommodation conditions.

1.2.3 Visa refusal (justified by an official document)

If the visa is refused and the student must cancel the programme:

  • If the cancellation request is made more than 18 days before the course start date, a fee of €100 will be retained. Registration fees will not be refunded.
  • If the cancellation request is made less than 18 days before the course start date, an amount equal to 10% of the course price (capped at €450) will be retained. Registration fees will not be refunded.

All bank charges related to the refund transaction are at the student’s expense. The refund will be made to the person who made the initial payment, using the same payment method as the booking.

 

2 / MODIFICATION AND/OR CANCELLATION CONDITIONS

No refund will be issued for late arrival or early departure. Any course started is due in full. Registration fees are non-refundable.

2.1 General case

  • Cancellation more than 30 days before: deposit refunded, minus registration fees (€80)
  • Cancellation between 29 and 18 days before: deposit not refunded (capped at €450)

Bank charges for the refund are at the student’s expense.

THE SCHOOL will reply within 1 week (based on the request’s sending date). The refund will be processed within 60 days from receipt of the supporting documents.

A group course cannot be changed into private lessons (and vice versa) at the student’s request. A change to another group programme of equal or greater value and duration may be accepted subject to availability and after payment of any price difference.

2.2 Force majeure (illness, death in the family, accident with injury)

Each party will be released from liability in case of total or partial, even temporary, non-performance of its obligations under the training contract, if caused by a force majeure event.

For the purposes of this contract, force majeure is defined as an insurmountable and irresistible event, resulting from circumstances beyond the parties’ control, such as climatic, bacteriological, military, political or diplomatic events.

THE SCHOOL undertakes, as far as possible and depending on the required pedagogical content, to implement educational continuity via digital materials or to reschedule the training programme.

In case of force majeure, the student remains liable for payment on a pro rata basis for the services already delivered.

In case of death of the father, mother, sibling, descendant or spouse after the start of classes, a death certificate, proof of relationship and a return flight ticket (where applicable) must be provided to the school management.

In case of illness occurring after the start of classes and requiring a definitive return to the country of origin (e.g., specialist follow-up), a partial refund will be issued upon presentation of a medical certificate issued by a doctor practising in France, any supporting documents, and a return flight ticket purchased after the onset of the illness. Any illness that can be treated in France will not be eligible for a refund.

In these two cases only, unused course hours will be refunded (any week started is due), with a penalty equal to one week of the chosen programme and accommodation. Registration fees are non-refundable.

Work or study obligations in France or abroad are not considered force majeure.

The risk related to the COVID-19 epidemic is not considered force majeure and cannot justify an interruption or refund request.

If THE SCHOOL is forced to close following a government decision, classes will be delivered online as part of our educational continuity programmes, with no refund possible.

Cancellation request. Any force majeure cancellation/refund request must be made in writing to THE SCHOOL’s management and supported by relevant documents. This request may be made before the programme starts or during the programme. A refund may be considered subject to presentation of supporting documents (certified translation in French or English) and approval by THE SCHOOL.

A copy of the insurance certificate may be requested by THE SCHOOL or by the accommodation provider.

THE SCHOOL may refuse access to certain services (in particular accommodation/activities) if the student is unable to provide a valid insurance certificate upon request.

Placement test: All registered students must take a written placement test before their arrival.

The maximum level for participation in the Junior Camp French courses is B2.

ARTICLE 4: ACCOMMODATION

Arrival on a Sunday, departure on a Saturday. Any additional night will be charged at the current rate.

People who have asked THE SCHOOL to find accommodation and who wish to change the type of accommodation once they have arrived must submit a reasoned and documented request to the management.

However, the management reserves the right to refuse such a change if the reasons given by the student do not seem sufficient or if L’ÉCOLE provides a satisfactory solution. In this case, if the student persists in his or her request for a change, the Management may grant the change by charging a change fee of €100.

The student must read and accept the house rules and the conditions of the accommodation he/she is staying in.

Damage: Students are responsible for any damage caused to the accommodation they occupy. Any breakages, missing items, repairs or cleaning that may be necessary will be invoiced directly to the customer. Payment must be made to the school concerned.

ARTICLE 5: INSURANCE

Customers are strongly advised to take out personal insurance to cover cancellation/interruption of stay or repatriation. Please note that personal effects, suitcases, objects, furniture, vehicles and valuables belonging to customers are not guaranteed against theft, loss or damage of any kind.

The parties therefore agree that KLF cannot be held liable under any circumstances and that it is the responsibility of the student to take out any insurance deemed necessary to guarantee his/her personal effects and the property made available to him/her.

ARTICLE 6: TRANSFERS

The SCHOOL organises a transfer between the airport or station and the place of residence for students who arrive within the times indicated in the enrolment form.

Any arrivals or departures outside the proposed transfer times will be invoiced additionally.

ARTICLE 7: COMPLAINTS

Any complaint concerning the services provided by the KLF centre must be made in writing by the party concerned to the KLF sales department before the end of the stay in order to be accepted.

In the event of a dispute, the parties agree that the case will be judged under the sole jurisdiction of the courts of the region in which the company’s head office is located.

ARTICLE 8: USE OF IMAGE

KLF reserves the right to take photographs of students in order to illustrate its brochures. In the event of disagreement, he/she or his/her parents must state this refusal in writing on the enrolment form.

ARTICLE 9: BEHAVIOUR

In the event of illegal activities, violation of the rules or inappropriate behaviour by a student, KLF reserves the right to take any action we deem appropriate, ranging from a warning to dismissal.
