How much of the week is taught in which language

There is no official figure for this school, and that is worth knowing. The Generalitat publishes a language split, stage by stage, for público and concertado schools, because they are inside the plurilingual programme. Private schools are outside it, so nobody is obliged to tell you how much of your child’s week will be in Valencian, in Spanish or in English — and the schools an English-speaking family looks at first are almost all private. Ask the school for its Plan Lingüístico de Centro, by stage, in writing. Centre 46018072.

The only school here that publishes the whole bill

Every other school in this area publishes tuition and stops. Los Olivos publishes the parts that turn a fee into a budget:

2026-27
Registration (matrícula) €1,395
Tuition €577.67 – €785.71 / month
School bus €187.69
Materials €305 – €325

That is not a small thing. Of the twelve schools we have checked around Valencia, not one publishes what the uniform costs and only this one publishes the bus and the materials. Everywhere else those are the numbers a family discovers in the second term.

It is also the least expensive British option on this site by a clear margin, and the transparency and the price are probably the same decision.

The uniform is still not published — that appears to be universal here.

Two campuses, both in Godella

The school is registered as a foreign centre with two codes, on Pino Panera and Los Almendros. Godella is fifteen minutes from central Valencia by car and twenty by metro on lines 1 and 2.

And Godella is the most flexible town in the belt on the padrón: it accepts an electricity, water or IBI receipt as proof of address, which matters for a family that has arrived before signing anything.

Who it suits

A family that wants a British education, wants the whole cost visible before it commits, and does not need the size and range of the largest schools.

Who it does not

A family that wants its children immersed in Spanish inside the Spanish system, or one whose priority is the breadth of facilities that comes with a much bigger school.

Living in Godella: schools, the padrón and what it costs

Does English School Los Olivos have a place in your child’s year?

Places are allocated by year group, not by school, and no website answers that. It takes calling the admissions office about that exact year and getting the answer in writing. That is The Shortlist, €989.
