Education is mandatory in Spain for children from the age of 3 to the age of 16.
There are three kind of educational establishments in our country:
- Public, financed by the state.
- Private.
- Charter schools, with private ownership but financed by the State.
Is important to say that in all the cases are the parents who will pay for books, uniforms and whatever is needed.
