St Paul's Waldorf School

Teaching through head, heart and hands

Autumn Term Tours

St Paul’s Waldorf School provides a dynamic education that supports the development of well-rounded human beings who are resourceful, creative, responsible and curious.

Housed in a beautiful Grade II* listed building in Islington, St Paul’s is an independent, non-selective and non-denominational school for children aged 3-14 years old. We aim to prepare children to meet the challenges of the 21st century, and to develop the problem-solving skills required for a sustainable future, through an education that connects with them in an inspiring and practical way. In this digital age, when facts are so easily accessed, it is creativity, imagination and intuition that set us apart - and this is at the heart of everything we do.

Our values are underpinned by:

COMMUNITY. COMPASSION. CURIOSITY. RESPONSIBILITY

  • What does a Steiner Waldorf education look like? It begins with the belief that childhood should have time, space and warmth to flourish. In the early years, children learn in a nurturing and secure environment where social and emotional wellbeing grows alongside pre-literacy and pre-numeracy skills. There is no rush formal learning begins when a child is turning seven. At the heart of every lesson is an approach that seeks to bring together mind, body and spirit, while helping children understand themselves and their place within their social and cultural world. Steiner Waldorf education offers a creative, unhurried environment where children can develop: - A strong sense of purpose - Creativity and freedom of thought - Empathy and connection - Confidence and strength of will The foundations of Waldorf education were inspired by the work of Austrian academic Rudolf Steiner, whose ideas went on to influence education, medicine, agriculture and architecture.
