Summary

Norwich Steiner School is an independent mixed school located in Norwich, Norfolk, catering to 95 pupils aged 3 to 19 years. The school follows the Steiner-Waldorf educational philosophy, which emphasises holistic development through a curriculum that integrates academic, artistic, and practical learning. The school aims to nurture well-rounded individuals who are confident and capable of pursuing their own futures.

The educational structure is divided into three main stages: Kindergarten, Lower School, and Upper School. In Kindergarten, children engage in imaginative play and creative activities, fostering exploration and growth. The Lower School introduces literacy and numeracy gradually, allowing children to learn at their own pace without the pressures of testing. The Upper School supports individuality and offers the Steiner School Certificate (SSC), a fully accredited Level 3 qualification.

The school community values a supportive environment, encouraging collaboration and interaction among students across different age groups. This approach helps children develop their identities and interests while preparing them for future opportunities. For more information, visit their website at www.norwichsteinerschool.co.uk.
