Support for children and adolescents with learning difficulties

Dear Colleagues

A child is best prepared for a healthy, successful experience in school when fully engaged with a sense of ease and joy for academic working. A harmonious and strong development of the physical foundations in the first seven years of life is the best prerequisite for this. Next to the general laws of timing for physical development, has each child his own individual timing and rhythm. We observe similar obstacles in early development worldwide that affect the learning ability and emotional health of students as they grow. Yet each individual child may manifest such challenges in their own unique way.
Many children and young people need support in order to develop their abilities. Rudolf Steiner gave guidance on how developmental gaps and delays can be recognized and how learning can become an experience again. At this conference, we will engage in study of these foundations for learning as well as exchange current real-life experiences and discoveries of our work in the field.
Teachers who give individual and group support lessons are invited, as well as teachers and parents who would like to support their children and pupils in their development and learning.

We are looking forward to welcoming you at the Goetheanum in October.
In the name of the preparation group and the Pedagogical Section
