International schools offer great standard of education in Marbella.
When you move a family abroad to a country like Spain you will encounter many important decisions that need to be made in relation to your relocation. None are arguably quite as imperative as those relating to the education of your children and the choice of school you will send them to.
Schools within the Spanish state education system are ordinarily of a good standard and offer a great opportunity for children to become fluent in Spanish and embrace the culture of their new country of residence. In very general terms, children aged six and under are more likely to assimilate easily into a Spanish school and to learn the communication skills required to thrive in a Spanish speaking system.
However, older children and those less confident in tackling new surroundings will benefit from attending an international school that runs its main curriculum in English or another expatriate language. Youngsters attending these independent schools will also take Spanish lessons as part of their coursework and will go on to participate in exams for the language in the appropriate school years.
Marbella and the surrounding area has a host of respected international schools that are well attended by children of the expatriate communities in the region.
Swans International is one of the longest established educational institutions in southern Spain and the school provides a high standard of education and personal development to children of both primary and secondary ages.
Other schools that come highly recommended in the Costa del Sol region include the German School Marbella (Colegio Alemán Juan Hoffmann) in Elviria, Laude International School in San Pedro Alcántara and Sotogrande International School.
The region has many schools that provide a broad curriculum to enable students to reach their full potential and pass the required exams to achieve their desired academic and employment goals in life. As it is essential under Spanish law that these academies are approved by the pertaining country’s embassy in Spain, parents can always be confident of their credibility and certification.
