Our mission is to inspire students through unique methods of learning. We recognise children interact with the world and learn in distinctly different ways at different ages. The Waldorf curriculum teaches subjects in ways that correspond to the developmental stage of the child. The Steiner approach follows 95% of countries around the world in delaying formal learning until the age of seven, and by the age of eleven, students are often academically ahead of their peers.

The use of drawing, painting, music, movement, poetry, modelling, and drama enhances the learning experience in all subjects. This encourages a strong sense for the artistic and cultural life and is supported by an aesthetic teaching environment.

Children joining Steiner Schools embark on a journey of learning and discovery. Class teachers are trained Waldorf teachers who lead students through the challenges of growing up, developing creative and responsible citizens able to bring purpose and direction to their lives.

The number of Steiner students attending Oxford and Cambridge is well above the national average. Universities favour Steiner school pupils because they are great all-round thinkers and exceedingly good at their own research. Steiner students have gone on to thrive in all areas of science, theatre, journalism, sport, music, and academia.

The Steiner approach is tried and tested and is part of state funded, mainstream provision in most European countries.

We measure our success in terms of how each pupil improves and progresses on their own individual academic journey. Pupil’s performance is measured against their potential and not against their peers.

We are proud of the fact that our Upper school is not academically selective, and we embrace a broad intake of pupils.
