Re: Advice about Kids and moving back to UK!
it's a shame spain doesn't come on here often now - they had been here rather longer when they returned & I think her son was 12 or so when they went back
I do know he took a spanish GCSE his first year back & his teachers were talking about A level too
I know he used to chat with his Spanish friends on the phone in Valenciano quite often too

Re: Advice about Kids and moving back to UK!
Out of interest to posters who are contemplating returning to the UK with their children, did it take them long to settle into their new schools, was their schooling at the same standard, did they make new friends easily or has it been difficult for them?
Great to see you on here again, hope all went well for you on the move back and the settling in.

Luckily my kids were happy to move back and settled straight away. They are quite easy going kids and the eldest especially wanted to return so that helped.
We were lucky enough to return back to their old schools so it helped settling -. I miss Spain now and then but being able to understand the education system is a huge relief.
We are planning to keep in touch with friends we made while in Asturias so we will always have that.
