Schools & preschools in Spain?

Question

Hi, I will be moving from the US to Spain (Cantabria/Santander) in August with my 4 year old son; we will have residence visas and will be there for one year, and I would like for him to attend some sort of school or preschool.

I'm wondering how to go about finding a school and making any necessary arrangements - is there any way to start before we leave? He knows Spanish, and I'd rather he go to a Spanish-language school. Also, I've read that vaccination records are important - anything else I should take with us?

Many thanks/Muchisimas gracias!

Answer 1

Las plazas para los colegios se pueden hacer en Mayo/Junio o en Septiembre.

En Septiembre será más difícil encontrar plaza claro, pero colegio tendrá seguro, sino en el que eligas, en otro le tienen que dar plaza.

Mira por internet si quieres saber más, los colegios que hay por Santander y tal... Ahí te vendra más información.
