The Green Field teaching methodology and curriculum are well recognised. They address many contemporary concerns, including respect for childhood, extended engagement of the adolescent in learning, sustainability, community building and social renewal.
In early years the Green Field school provides time and space for the development of pre-literacy skills, social and emotional competence in a warm and secure learning environment where the qualities of childhood are nurtured.
Green Field’s philosophical work, known as anthroposophy, is not taught as part of the curriculum, but underpins the vision for the education, which seeks to nurture equally the child and later young person’s capacities of thinking, feeling and volition, as well as fostering a sense of respect. At the centre of the school’s activities is a set of principles that recognises the integrated nature of mind, body and spirit set in a social or cultural context. These principles encourage teachers to use their own skills and creativity, and accept each individual’s capacity to achieve and exercise moral autonomy.
In this creative and unhurried learning atmosphere a strong sense of purpose develops, which enables children to become creative, flexible and socially responsible world citizens, encourages freedom of thought, empathy and strength of will and recognises the spiritual dimension and potential in each human being. The Green Field School is a part of an international movement of schools.
