Who We Are

A family supporting other families
Know more

Your children’s future

With more than 12 years of experience, we organise academic programmes in Ireland for students in primary, secondary, and sixth form education.

We are a family-run company committed to a close, continuous, and fully personalised approach. We know each student and family personally, because we believe every educational experience should be tailored to each student’s individual needs.

In addition, our team is based in Ireland, in the same areas where our students live, just 5–10 minutes from their homes and schools. This proximity allows us to provide immediate, close, and ongoing support throughout their stay, something very few organisations are able to guarantee.

Unique value proposition

We stand out for offering truly personalised support to each student and family.

From the very first contact, we guide our students individually so they feel safe, motivated, and supported throughout their entire experience in Ireland.

We are not just another agency. We are a family supporting other families.

We know each student personally, understand their needs, and maintain a close and ongoing relationship with both students and parents.

We have a professional and dedicated team based permanently in Ireland, with first-hand knowledge of the needs of Spanish students. We are present before, during, and after their stay.

Our Team

One of the aspects most valued by our families is knowing who is behind the programme and who will be supporting their children throughout the entire experience.

At Ireland & Families, we have a close-knit, accessible, and committed team that works in coordination between Spain and Ireland to ensure the wellbeing and progress of each student.
