What We Know About Schools

Thinking about moving to Spain with kids? Or just curious how schools work here? In this episode, we untangle the quirks of Spanish education—from public, private, and concertado schools to uniforms, buses, lunches, and why math suddenly looks like it came from another planet.

We share what surprised us most (the good, the confusing, and the “wait… what?!”), plus tips on navigating new approaches to learning, extracurriculars, and even where to score school supplies. Whether you’re gearing up for one year abroad or hoping your child leaves fluent in Spanish and fractions, we’ve got you covered.
