Is Dyslexia recognised in schools in Spain, in Italy it has only been a couple of years?
Some Italian Friends came here 3 years ago with their 15 yr old son. He has just passed his exams in a state school and has just applied for Uni. Italian is bit closer to Spanish though. When I or my wife were working here we were both covered under the state national insurance scheme, but it was necessary to fill in a few forms at the Malaga office.
Good luck to you all.

I guess I should have added, when we took our son of 5 to the UK from Italy (italian spoken at home) there were no probs at school and within a few months he was out playing with all the other kids. When we returned to Italy 4 years later it was the same, only some small probs with Italian grammar the first year. He had to repeat one year in secondary school but only because he was a bit of a lazy "·$. Total immersion is the name of the game and kids seem to thrive on it plus they will be the stars helping with everyone elses' English..............

I believe the closest English International school to you will be St Anthony's college. It's literally straight down the main road from Coin, heading in the direction of Fuengirola and depending on where you are in coin will take you around 15 minutes commute. There may also be a school bus provided as many children come from the in-land villages, check their website.
There's an excellent billingual school in Alhaurin de la Torre called El Pinar, its a Spanish private school so fees are generally cheaper than English private but the main language spoken will be Spanish even though they say they are billingual.
