Assuming you have checked that you can come to live under the new rules your children will have to have some Spanish language knowledge as they make no allowances at the schools for English.  They will adapt quickly and soon become fluent if they are confident children.  Not sure where ...

...the schools are in the Lubrin area as it is inland and rural, most schools have a transport system to take the children to school if you live a long way from the nearest ones.  Of course if you are looking to settle here you also would need a good background in the language as well.   As for driving at the moment you still have to take a Spanish driving test to drive here if you are able to become a resident although an exchange of UK to Spanish licence is being discussed.

Hi, I’m assuming you’re relocating with work to Spain and have full residency etc. Regarding school for your children, they speak Spanish and only Spanish. My advice would be to get private one to one lessons every day with a private Spanish teacher asap. I did that when we relocated to germany when my kids were 11and 6, about six months prior to moving. They were pretty fluent by the time they started school the youngest finding it very easy to learn quickly but my eldest struggled at first but we just kept up the lessons. You will also need to learn Spanish as it makes life much easier for you in so many ways. Wishing you all the very best for your future and I hope you will be very happy in Spain.

As mentioned earlier in this thread, the various International schools teach in English

Hi Everyone! My husband and I are looking to relocate to Lubrin from the UK with our 2 children who are 6 and 10. Does anyone have any experience of moving with children? All advice is welcome. Obviously, we know this is a massive step but we are so eager to show our children a different way of l...

Go for it! You have to try and the children will thankyou for it. Mine both went to a local spanish school and did incredibly well.

We all love our lives here and thank everyone who supported us very much. We are part of a spanish family now. Very lucky people .
