Estepona, on the western Costa del Sol, has begun the second phase of a climate-control programme for local education centres, according to City Hall. The work is intended to put new heating and cooling equipment in place before the 2026–27 school year begins.
- 35 new units are planned.
- The stated budget is €64,000.
- Six schools and three municipal nurseries are named in the plan.
What is being installed
The city says this phase adds 35 heating and cooling units to selected education sites.
According to the council’s 21 August announcement, the phase has a €64,000 budget. It says the installations have already begun and are scheduled for completion before classes start. The council describes the equipment as supporting cooling, ventilation and heating in classrooms that still need it.
Centres named by the council
The listed sites include six schools and three municipal early-years centres.
The announcement names Valeriano López, Víctor de la Serna, Nuestra Señora del Carmen, Santo Tomás de Aquino, Gloria Fuertes and Ramón García schools. It also names the municipal nurseries Los Pitufos, El Mar and Calancha. Families who use those centres should treat the council’s stated completion target as a plan, rather than confirmation that works at every site have finished.
Why this matters in Marbella
The work concerns classroom conditions for families across the Marbella-area coast.
For English-speaking residents with children in the municipal education network, the practical point is that the council expects the new systems to be available from the beginning of term. The stated purpose is to improve year-round classroom comfort, particularly during hotter months. It is not an announcement of a change to enrolment, timetables or school access.
What readers should know
Parents needing site-specific information should contact their child’s school directly.
The council says this work follows an earlier phase in which around 50 units were installed for €60,000. It also refers to wider maintenance and improvement work across education buildings. Marbella Daily has based this brief on the municipal notice and will update it if Estepona publishes a revised timetable or completion information. Read the Estepona City Hall announcement.
