Steiner Waldorf is an holistic education with a creative, developmentally appropriate and academically rigorous approach. It aims to develop a child's emotional, spiritual, physical and academic potential equally. This 'Head, Heart and Hands' approach helps children enjoy learning, be happy at school and develop the life skills needed to thrive in a fast changing world.

Schools are inclusive and non-selective. The curriculum is interdisciplinary and uniquely interweaves artistic and physical activities with academic learning in all subjects including science and maths. Teaching takes into account the distinct stages of child development so that when, how and what children are taught engages with the way they learn. Formal learning starts at age six allowing time for the youngest children to develop through play, imitation and exploration fostering a sense of wellbeing and emotional resilience.

The learning environment is one of warmth, empathy and appreciation building confidence without the need for high-stakes testing. In the upper school, a focus on questioning, discussion and research enables Steiner students not only to obtain the qualifications needed for university, apprenticship or work but also to have the capacity to be creative, curious, collaborative thinkers, strong communicators and imaginative innovators. Steiner Waldorf education prepares young people for life in the widest sense.
