Best education for my 10 year old.
Hi. I m thinking of moving to javea for a few months early this year with my 10 year old girl (11 in Feb). She would come back for her final year in primary school in Scotland in August/sept 2019. We have my parents holiday home near the siesta bar near the port, and have come out 2/3 times a year for the last 30 years so we know our way around.
I always wanted to do this with our older 2, now 17 and 19 but were not in the position to do it then.
Ideally we would love her to be in a Spanish school, learn the language, make friends(she is sociable) with all nationalities.
A couple of questions? Has any one else done this? I’m an ex primary teacher so don’t have any concerns checking she is up to date with her schooling before she goes back to Scotland. What are the pros and cons for maybe doing it for 2 terms?
She loves gymnastics, plays saxophone, goes to hip hop dancing and loves learning and life and I wonder if anyone could recommend particular schools in Javea we should try?
When are the term dates in Spain?
Is there normally someone in a Spanish school that can speak English to stop her feeling isolated?
Many thanks in advance,
Mhairi
