cant help you as I am in Gandia but have a look at these, might find a bit of info

http://www.ontinyent.com/

http://www.ontinyent.es/

other than that of course the town hall will tell you the closest school to where you will be living

Re: ontinyent
 

that's interesting ...we like Ontinyent & it is one of the possibilities for if/when we move from Javea (too many brits here now). Older dd will be of secondary school age, Do you know what sort of reputation th primary school has?

good try........not buying though:D

Re: ontinyent
 

thanks for the ideas re contacting ayuntamiento, when we lived in Spain before children attended Spanish International school but now we are looking at local schools as my daughter is deaf and the private schools simply will not take her!! really looking forward to going back on the 28th and maybe that we end up with what we thought initially but just need to be sure- bit like trying on a dress then spending all afternoon trying on 50 others but ending up buying the first 1 I see!!! sure that makes sense to fellow shopaholics.

Are going to have a scout round the Ontinyent area and see what we find though but only have 2 days this time and need to come back to the UK having made a firm decision!

Re: ontinyent

good luck :thumbup:

Re: ontinyent
 

haha! we know but hopefully will all be with it in the end! thanks for the good wishes

Re: ontinyent
 

of course it will

when we wre originally house hunting over here we only came to look around, long story short we found a villa and literally at the check in going home was un-packing Oh clothes so he could stay and do the deal on the property :eek: total madness for the whole of the following week with him here and me back in UK but now 4 years later we look back and think OMG how mad was that !!! :rofl:
