There are public (government-run) schools and private schools.
For public schools, the fees are moderate. Foreigners pay more than locals, but it's generally not more than a few thousand dollars per year.
Private school are pricey and fees of $10000 and more per year are common.
In general, the school's webpages (and the ministry of education's for public schools) give a detailed breakdown of all fees and other costs.
