International schools
Moving to Spain - International schools
Hi, - I am new to the site and will be using it lots over the coming months...!
We are moving to Spain, looking at properties in the following areas - Olivos/Gandia, Monserrat/Montroy and Peniscolla/Beniscolla - I would like some advice about the British international schools in these areas - which ones are recommended? My children are 15 & 12 and want to finish there education under the British GCSE system.
Thank you in advance,
Lee

Re: International schools
As Concierge for the Spanish section of BE I would like to say hello and welcome.
BE is a very large expat website, so if you have problems finding your way around we have concierges who will try to direct you. The moderators for the Spanish forums are Mitzyboy and Fred James, moderators are there to ensure that the site runs smoothly within the rules of BE. Problems and complaints should always be addressed to a moderador who will look into the matter and deal with it efficiently and fairly. Our members who post in the Spain Forums are friendly and helpful with a wealth of knowledge of the issues of living in Spain. At the top of the page you will find a quirkily named thread called Free Beer which is full of important and useful information. Hope you enjoy your time participating in the forums.
Please let me know if you need any further help.

Re: International schools
I don't know the schools in the area, and what I'm going to say you probably know but....try to time it so that neither of them are mid-way through either GCSE or AS/A2 at the time of the move. With different exam boards and different coursework requirements (and even different subject availablilty) it can make things really awkward.
Good luck
