Your Guide To Public & Private Schools In Velez-Malaga
If you’re thinking of moving (or have recently moved) to Velez-Malaga and have children, one of your first questions will undoubtedly be about schooling options. First of all, it’s worth bearing in mind that children attend school from the age of 3 in Andalucia. Places at the better schools are limited so ensure you apply in April with plenty of time for the coming September. The places are means tested and catchment area (among other things) is taken into account.
Velez has one semi-private school (where donations are requested) and the rest are public schools. There are two private schools within 20 minutes’ drive from Velez-Malaga and school buses leave from the town. The main schools in the town are listed below.
