About international schools in Asturias, Spain

Asturias has a small and geographically concentrated set of international and strongly bilingual schools, mainly around the Oviedo - Gijón - Avilés corridor, so choice is more limited than in Spain’s biggest cities but you will find both British-style and International Baccalaureate pathways alongside private bilingual Spanish schools. Schools commonly teach through English and Spanish, often adding a third language such as French or German, and many follow either a UK (Cambridge/IGCSE and A-Level) or IB continuum (PYP/MYP/DP), with elements of the Spanish curriculum taught to allow convalidation. Fees for full private international provision in Asturias are generally lower than in Madrid or Barcelona but can still range broadly (several thousand euros a year; some schools quote figures in the low five-figure annual range depending on age and services), and parents should budget separately for enrolment, transport, meals and trips. The Spanish school year starts in September and most private international schools run their main admissions round in the months beforehand, so relocating families should allow at least a few months to visit schools, request detailed fee schedules and arrange language or administrative support for arrival.

FAQs for Spain

What curricula are available in international schools in Asturias?
You will commonly find British-style programmes (Cambridge IGCSE and A levels or UK national curricula) and schools offering the International Baccalaureate across primary and secondary phases; some private bilingual centres deliver a largely Spanish curriculum with significant English-medium teaching. A small number of schools also introduce other European languages and international accreditation, so check each school’s published programmes and accreditations when comparing options.
How much do these schools typically cost?
Tuition varies by school, age and services, but private international and bilingual schools in Asturias commonly charge several thousand euros per year; some centres published fees that amount to mid-three-figure or low-four-figure monthly payments (equivalent to roughly five-figure annual sums once extras are included). Expect additional one-off enrolment fees plus costs for meals, transport, uniforms, external exams and optional activities, so always ask for a full annual cost breakdown.
When should we apply if we are relocating to Asturias?
The main intake for schools in Spain is at the start of the academic year in September, and many international schools run their principal admissions cycle in the spring and early summer, so start enquiries several months before your intended arrival. Private schools often accept applications and mid-year transfers outside that window if places exist, but availability, assessment and language-support arrangements are easier to manage with earlier notice.
What language support is there for children who don’t speak Spanish?
Most international and bilingual schools instruct through English and Spanish and provide Spanish-as-an-additional-language support or newcomer programmes to help pupils integrate; schools vary in the intensity of support and in how much of the Spanish curriculum they teach. Asturias also offers regional Asturian-language classes within the public system, but Asturian is not normally the medium of instruction in international schools, so ask each school for details of language provision and assessment on visit.
Will international qualifications be recognised if we want our child to move into the Spanish system or apply to Spanish universities?
Qualifications such as the IB Diploma and recognised UK A-Levels are accepted by Spanish universities, and many international schools in Asturias include elements of the Spanish curriculum or offer formal convalidation pathways so pupils can transfer to the national system if needed. Always check with the school about the specific paperwork they provide for convalidación and with the Spanish university admission service or the university of interest for exact entry requirements.
