Hi,is it acceptable to go to ski school for the first 2/3 days to get the hang and then go off on your own, girlfriend is intermediate, im complete beginner, so would like to get the basics and then ski with the better half for the rest of the holiday.

Yep!!
Bsically you can do what ever you feel you want to do.
The other alternatives are to:
Only use ski school in the mornings and ski together in the afternoon
Use ski school full time but your girlfriend could perhaps join your group from say Tuesday once you are going on better runs - depends on the make up of your group as to how quickly you progress. My husband joined our group on the Wednesday and Friday last year to give me a break from the kids and for him to see how ...

The Bulgarians are very relaxed and you can generally go with the flow. What I liked about the ski school is that you stayed together for the day and your instructor, especially as you progress, becomes more like a guide but is there to assist you technically if you need it.
Hope this helps

re: Ski school - again!
why not get private lessons, they are very reasonable and then you can taylor make it to suit you and you girlfriend. We always have private for the kids, you can progress alot quicker too.
re: Ski school - again!
As long as you let your instructor know when you are going off so they don't expect you, do whatever you wantJ
re: Ski school - again!
Yes, the lessons can be a bit restrictive...we had a couple in our group who struggled with the basics and therefore held up the rest of the group for the whole week. In the end we went off on our own. If you are reasonably sporty you'll get the basics in a day and a half, the rest is just practice which you can do by yourselves at a speed to suit yourself. After all it is your holiday and you only have 6 days of skiing.Jon
