What this is
Moving to Spain with children involves more than just the adults' paperwork. Schools, language, friendships, routine disruption and the emotional experience all matter.
We help you understand Spanish school options, map UK to Spanish year groups, time the transition well, and prepare for the practical realities of a bilingual household in Spain.
This is preparation support with a practical checklist — not educational advice, not a school placement guarantee and not a guaranteed official outcome. We explain the system, map your situation, and flag when specialist help is needed.

Common questions
What school should my child go to?
We explain the types and help you assess what fits your family's priorities. The final decision is yours, informed by our structured overview.
Will my child lose their English?
Not if you maintain English at home and choose your school type carefully. We discuss integration vs maintenance strategies.
What if my child is in GCSE/A-Level years?
This is a red flag. Exam disruption is real and should be planned around. We flag the timing issues and suggest strategies (some families delay the move, others transfer to international schools, others homeschool for a period). Specialist educational advice is often needed.
Do you help with university applications?
No — this service covers school transition only. University applications are a different system and outside our scope.
