Safeguarding and Wellbeing

The curriculum is holistic and designed around the developmental stages of childhood with testing and exam taking introduced when children are older and emotionally ready. See the Curriculum

Schools work to provide a kind and compassionate environment where children feel accepted and appreciated. All staff undertake regular external and accredited safeguarding training. All schools have a designated safeguarding lead who heads a team of safeguarding and wellbeing practitioners who work closely with teachers. The contact details of the DSL can be found on each school's website and posted in the school reception and around the school building. Teachers meet regularly as a group and discuss issues of wellbeing.

Trauma Informed and Attachment Aware Practice

To enhance safeguarding practice, Waldorf UK provides specialist training in trauma-informed and attachment-aware practice for all of our schools. Our aim is that all staff in our schools become fully conversant with this approach.
