Data note (2026-10-06): Official website checked 2026-10-06: full per-grade table published for current year; figures now from official site. CONFLICT: official 260,000–447,000 differs >10% from previously recorded 165,000–240,000 (was [NV]); official preferred. Official-site discrepancy noted 2026-10-06: Grouped row: Finnway official fees (260k-447k) do NOT cover Life School (165-240k in chunk) or Buds etc. Finnway now extends to Grade 7 (opening Aug 2026 per homepage snippet), beyond EY-primary.
