Our approach with Steiner waldorf education

What we deliver at nant-y-cwm

pic4.png

Holistic Curriculum: The curriculum is designed to address the whole child—the head, heart and hands.

Developmental Approach: The curriculum is tailored to the developmental stages of each child. Subjects are introduced at times when the child is deemed developmentally ready.

Continuity of care: Each class typically has a teacher who stays with the same group of pupils throughout their journey, allowing the teacher to understand the individual needs and development of each child.

Interdisciplinary Learning: Lessons are taught with connections drawn between different subject areas. This approach aims to provide a more interconnected and meaningful understanding of the world

Creative Expression: Artistic activities are integrated into the academic curriculum to engage the imagination and creativity of students.

WALDORF EDUCATION

EDUCATION THAT MAKES A DIFFERENCE

waldorf.jpg

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. We call this 'Head, Heart and Hands' and through this approach we help children to be happy at school and develop the life skills they will need to thrive.

Schools are inclusive and non-selective. An interdisciplinary curriculum uniquely interweaves artistic and physical activities with academic learning 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 naturally learn. Formal learning starts at age six allowing time for the youngest children to develop through play, imitation and exploration which fosters a sense of wellbeing and emotional resilience. The learning environment is one of warmth, empathy and appreciation which builds confidence without the need for high-stakes testing. In the upper school, a focus on questioning, discussion and research enables Waldorf students to leave school not just with good qualifications but equipped to be creative, curious, collaborative thinkers, strong communicators and imaginative innovators. Waldorf education prepares them for life in the widest sense.
