Hi Everyone,  Me and my family are moving to Spain in 2 years when my daughter leaves school, does anyone have any advice on how further education works and possibly any webs sites we can look at.  Not looking at any particular area at the moment but certainly within travelling distance of Torrevieja. Many thanks in advance.

Try kings College in Murcia - its fee paying but they do A level (English curriculum) subjects if she wants to go back to the UK for Uni later.

It depends on If you want them to study English Or Spanish Education.

If she hasn't completed high school she can go  to

  • an instituto (high school) which where she studies 4 years until the age of 16. Be warned, if you don't pass your exams, you can be held back a year. If she passes high school she will receive the certificate saying she has passed 

If she has a high school certificate, you can then go to:

  •  Bachillerato - a Two year course after high school (like 6th form) which prepares you for Uni

  • Circulo formativo Medio - like a collage where you study a particular class eg business, IT, Art etc.


if you need any more info just reply to me!!!
