Hi there...
I have just joined EOS and  thought I would add  my 2 cents ( for what it's worth )
I live on the Costa del Sol or (concrete city), I'm retired and now looking to make my last move I have spent the last week in the Murcia area looking at some new developments around Jumilla.
I moved to Spain just over 8 years ago when my daughter lived here, and love it! the only thing I can say on schools is if your kids are not teenagers get them straight into a local Spanish school.
If Spain is going to be their home they will make new local friends and pickup the language far quicker, the fees for the English schools are expensive  and from my daughters experience  she regreted not getting her two signed up to a very good local school that was  within easy walking distance from home.
And don't forget the school run can be a nightmare and very costly if you are some distance away...
You have moved to Spain like most of us Ex Pats for something better... give them the best that Spain can offer not an expensive English alternative.
