Schools - do you plan to move to Albufeira? I am sure some here can advise on schools here but not elsewhere. There's nothing wrong with locals schools so far as I hear, but tuition will be in Portuguese of course. Many have Portuguese lessons for English speakers while their counterparts are learning English, which is more or less compulsory down here from around age 10 or 11.

There is an International (fee paying) school out near Lagoa where tuition is in English. Website - http://www.nobelalgarve.com/" rel="nofollow - http://www.nobelalgarve.com/

I do recall that you will need documentation concerning your children's level of attainment in their current schools which will need to be translated into Portuguese if they attend local schools.

Well I have to tell you that Algoz is in the Silves council area therefore any talk of local schools in Albufeira may be irrelevant.
