About international schools in Zaragoza, Spain

International schools in Zaragoza are a small but varied sector that typically offers bilingual Spanish - English programmes alongside distinct options such as the French national curriculum and Montessori or American-style international provision. You will find schools teaching the International Baccalaureate, French curriculum and bilingual or Cambridge-style streams, and many of the city’s international schools put strong emphasis on English while keeping Spanish as a daily language at all ages. Fees vary: local bilingual private schools can be comparatively modest while dedicated international programmes commonly carry multi-thousand-euro annual costs plus one-off registration or capital fees and extras such as meals and transport. Admissions follow the Spanish school year with a main September intake, and families relocating to Zaragoza normally begin enquiries several months in advance and should be ready with passports, recent school reports (translated if necessary), immunisation records and any SEN documentation.

FAQs for Spain

What curricula are available in Zaragoza’s international schools and how do they differ?
Zaragoza hosts a mix of curricula: some schools offer the International Baccalaureate, others follow the French national curriculum, and a number run bilingual Spanish - English or Montessori/American-style programmes; there are also schools and municipal centres with Cambridge or bilingual streams. The main differences are in assessment and progression - IB and Cambridge prepare for international qualifications, the French school follows France’s national pathway, and bilingual or Spanish private schools combine local curriculum goals with stronger English instruction.
How much should we budget for school fees and extra costs?
Costs vary widely by type of school: bilingual private schools in the city can be at the lower end of the private-school spectrum, while fully international or accredited international schools typically charge several thousand euros per year and may add non-refundable registration, capital or placement fees plus costs for meals, uniforms, books and transport. Ask each school for a full fee schedule and an itemised example annual budget so you can compare ‘all-in’ costs rather than base tuition alone.
When should we start the admissions process for a move to Zaragoza?
Most international and private schools follow a September - June academic year, so the main intake is in September and popular year groups fill first; families are advised to start enquiries and applications 6 - 12 months before their intended start date. Expect a sequence of enquiry, application, document checks, an assessment or interview and then a written offer; if you are applying from abroad allow extra time for translations, document legalisation and any required equivalency checks.
What languages are used for teaching and what support is there for children who do not speak Spanish?
Teaching languages vary by school: many international schools use English as the main medium while teaching Spanish as a core subject, and the French school uses French as its primary language. Most international schools offer English-medium induction support for non-Spanish speakers and language learning programmes to bring children up to age-appropriate levels, but the amount and style of language support differs so check each school’s EAL/Spanish support provision before applying.
What practical things should relocating families check when comparing schools in Zaragoza?
Look for curriculum alignment with your home country or long-term plans, official recognition or international accreditation, the school’s policy and capacity for language support and any special educational needs, and a clear, itemised fees schedule including transport and extracurricular costs. Also consider location and travel time inside Zaragoza, whether the school offers school-bus routes, and the admissions timetable so you can avoid losing places through late applications.
