Education:
Standards in the Spanish state schools are high. As with the health care it is free except for a nominal charge for exercise books, etc. Younger children are best enrolled into this system and usually adapt to the language and make new friends very quickly, in all probability there will already be a number of British children in the class.
For older children already in the GCSE system there is a choice of four private British schools and one American school on Mallorca whom operate exactly the same syllabus as in the UK.
Pass levels and university entrance selection are well above the national UK average.
