More and more Spanish families are seeking new educational and cultural experiences for their children. One popular option is to move to the United Kingdom for a term, where children can attend a British private school while parents continue working remotely. Thanks to services like BoardingUK, the entire process becomes much simpler and more accessible.


Why choose a term in the UK?


Living in another country is a unique opportunity for the whole family. Some of the main benefits of this experience are:

  • Total English immersion : Children learn the language naturally by living and studying in a completely English-speaking environment.

  • Top-notch British education : Private schools in the UK offer a challenging academic education with a practical and participatory approach (see post on British schools ).

  • Enriching cultural experience : From local traditions to new habits, living in the UK allows the family to experience a different culture firsthand.

  • Flexibility for parents : With the rise of teleworking, many parents can continue their work while accompanying their children on this adventure.

  • Personal and family growth : Adapting to a new country and a new education system strengthens autonomy, resilience, and team spirit throughout the family.

How does BoardingUK help?


Organizing a temporary stay in another country can seem complicated, but BoardingUK makes the entire process easier. Its services include:

  • School Selection : They find the best option based on the age, needs, and preferences of each family.

  • Search for accommodation : Houses or apartments adapted for teleworking and as close to the school as possible.

  • Procedures and documentation : Visa management, school registration, and legal requirements.

  • Advice and support : Continuous support before, during and after the stay.


The daily life of a Spanish family in the United Kingdom


The daily routine changes completely in this experience. In the morning, children attend classes at a British school, participating in dynamic subjects and extracurricular activities such as sports, art, and theater. Meanwhile, parents can take advantage of the time to work remotely from home or in coworking spaces.

Afternoons, since school lets out between 3:30 and 4:30 p.m., are an ideal time to explore the surrounding area, visit museums, parks, or simply immerse yourself in local life. Weekends offer the opportunity to take trips to nearby cities, discover the English countryside, the Cotswolds, or even visit London.


Conclusion


Spending a term in the UK with the whole family is not only an investment in the children's education, but also a transformative experience for everyone. With the support of BoardingUK, this process becomes accessible and hassle-free, allowing Spanish families to enjoy an unforgettable adventure. Can you imagine living this experience?
