The need for a renewal in education has rarely been felt more keenly than it is today. There is growing concern that modern life may impact negatively on children`s mental and physical health, their hopes and aspirations, their self-belief and their sense of purpose. Steiner Waldorf Education aims to equip children and young people with resilience, sensitivity and confidence for meeting the world.

The new course, entitled ‘Prelude. The Foundations of Steiner Waldorf Education’, will enable a deeper understanding of what characterises this education. All thirty seminars and lectures take place on Zoom on Monday evenings, from 14 September 2020 to 28 June 2021. They begin at 7.30 GMT and last from 60 to 90 minutes. The sessions are led by experienced and inspiring Waldorf practitioners.

At £295 for the whole course, or £20 for individual sessions, our hope is to reach teachers, parents, grandparents, trustees, homeschoolers and general enquirers, inviting them to become part of a learning community, or simply to `dip-in` to what is of particular interest to them.

Originally intended for a UK audience, the course has attracted registrations from Mumbai to Mexico and from London to Lithuania.
