Lots' of good videos on Up Sticks site who help people with Visa's. Link https://www.youtube.com/@Upsticks
As for schools a few private International Schools, . https://www.casaconcept.net/international-schools-in-fuengirola-benalmadena-and-torremolinos/
State education is good, can your child speak Spanish? Further, post Brexit you will need a work Visa and job to get education free, it's not like before Brexit, 'when all EU citizens got free education', UK a third country now. You will find it very hard to get a job in Spain due to high unemployment, unless you offer some needed skills and fluent in Spanish.

Check if you have any child isa /child trust etc -so if you have JUNIOR ISA check this out
My understanding
https://www.gov.uk/junior-individual-savings-accounts/manage-an-account
“If your child moves abroad, you can still add cash to their Junior ISA.
Your child’s Junior ISA will be in their name, but the parent who opens it is responsible for managing the account and is known as the ‘registered contact’.
The registered contact is the only person who can:
What happens if I/ the child move abroad, am I still able to pay into my Junior Cash ISA?
Yes. As long as the child was a UK resident when the Junior cash ISA was opened, you will still be able to pay into the Junior cash ISA even though you and/or the child have moved abroad.
