Hello Nicola,
We have just started homeschooling in Spain. You will not find a lot of homeschoolers in Spain because homeschooling is not permitted in Spain. It is still illegal. But (as mine) there are families homeschooling, some hiding, others getting out to get it legal. You will find most families in the big cities: Madrid or Barcelona for example. Most homeschooling families are in Catalonia.

The Spanish constitution recognises the right of the parent to choose the form of education that their child receives. However most teachers, police officers, and local social service departments have their own ideas. I´ve yet to find anyone else homeschooling in my area.
We tend to keep our heads down until after 2pm when school lets out too. saves alot of hassle.

Hi Nicola,
Their are no public accessible groups.
You can have a look at ALE.
http://www.educacionlibre.org/
But you have to be a member before you can get into the group.
Hope you are lucky to find somebody.
What area were you thinking of?
Jinxyfred are you homeschooling in Spain as well?
It is not just teachers and police officers or Social Service departments with their own ideas. It is the Spanish Educacional Law that says litteraly that schooling is compulsury. So there is a gap between the Constitution and the Educacional Law.
We are trying to arrange that. Hope it doesn't take too many years.

homeschooling in Mallorca
My family will be moving to Mallorca for a year beginning in the summer. I have never homeschooled, but am considering it for the year we are in Spain. I am wondering if "apmama" or anyone else knows how I can get in contact with someone in the small homeschooling community of Mallorca. Any info is appreciated. Gretchen

Hello everyone! We ended up moving to Mallorca and are now happily homeschooling here
We still think it's a great place to live, and I feel the homeschooling movement is growing- poco a poco. We would love to get in touch with more.
