Abstract

The first Free Waldorf School was established with a fully formed curriculum, educational structure and set of teaching methodologies developed by Rudolf Steiner over a period of three months and immediately implemented when the school opened in September 1919. However, Steiner’s approach to ‘the problem of education’ had long been in gestation and was informed by the accumulation of many different influences: from ancient Greek and Roman societies; the scientific writings of Goethe and eighteenth century German Romanticism; movements in progressive education; and his own lengthy empirical studies into the nature and evolution of the human being in modern society.
