The school, which occupies a leafy campus in the south-side of Edinburgh, educates children aged 31/2 to 18 years. Based on the principles of the internationally recognised Steiner Waldorf curriculum, we endeavour to develop capable, well-rounded individuals who can contribute to society with initiative and purpose.
Our curriculum addresses all the multiple intelligences, develops analytical, logical and reasoning skills as education has always done, but also focuses on the development of imagination, creativity, memory and flexible thinking. Our young people are well-equipped to undertake the challenges of life and work in the information age. They are adaptable, enquiring and confident, with a global and environmental awareness, who understand how to make connections, to interpret information and to innovate. They find success in a wide range of areas, including law, business, engineering, the media and the creative industries.
What Makes Us Unique?
• Our exam results are consistently higher than the national average, despite not selecting our pupils on ability.
• In line with the mainstream education in the rest of Europe and most countries world-wide, the start of formal learning in Steiner Waldorf schools is delayed until the age of six years.
• Main Lessons are topic blocks which are studied daily by all students up to Class 12 and include subjects such as Astronomy, Philosophy, Surveying and Clay Modelling. This programme ensures that, irrespective of their exam choices, all pupils receive a broad education which encompasses science, art, crafts and the humanities.
• French and German are taught from the age of six years and there is an extended visit to a French or German speaking country at the age of 14 years.
• Gardening lessons and farming experience form a fundamental part of our whole curriculum in both the Lower and Upper School.
