Malta with kids

Hi

Hope somebody staying in Malta might be able to help.

- Thinking of going over with 2 kids ( 8 and 5 year old ) , can you suggest a suitable school area, fees for private schools and if any other schools where you don't need to do the 11 plus exam ( called something else in Malta I think ).

- We would be looking to do a long term rent, 2 or 3 bed apartment but would need to be in area with families so the kids could mix and I need an area that picks up broadband to use for my business.

- Cheapest place to find flights from Glasgow ?

Any other tips would be great !

Thanks

Hello! Just thought I'd reply to this, not because I can be of much help but because I have received a lot of advice in this topic:

With regard to schools I think there are 2 or 3 International type schools in Malta (if that's what you are looking for). Chiswick House School, Verdala International School and San Anton/ San Antonia

I have decided that Verdala School would probably suit us best as they are used to having children there for shorter periods, there's no expensive uniforms to buy and they are ECIS accredited. I have 3 children who are 4, 6 and 7 years old. The Verdala site mentions fees somewhere.

Theres a couple of good property websites people have pointed me towards including Frank Salt

Hope this helps a bit.
