Cotswold Chine School
Since embarking upon the European Masters Programme in Steiner Waldorf Education, the teaching staff at Cotswold Chine School, near Stroud in England, have risen to the challenge, engaging with Steiner's writings enthusiastically and have integrated their research into their everyday practice. "I now have a deeper understanding of the works of Steiner, which has extended my existing knowledge of these texts."
Dan Walton, Geography co-ordinator. "Since working on the European Masters Programme I have greatly benefited from the in-depth discussions that arise from the reading of the Steiner texts. These have been incredibly useful in the teaching of art at the school"June Cross, Art Co-ordinator. Dyfrug Williams, Head of English, commented "The opportunity to discuss Steiner ideas and theories with external lecturers has benefited all the teachers at the school." "The sessions have aided me to develop my understanding of how the ideas of Rudolf Steiner can be applied practically in the classroom."Lucy Jones, History Co-ordinator"Owing to the fact that I have worked in a Steiner school for many years I already have a firm understanding of Steiner methods and teaching styles, however a more detailed reading of many of Steiner's lectures has given me yet further insight."Joan Van DeventorThe programme of Masters study, which commenced in the autumn of 2003, consists of monthly seminar sessions with University of Plymouth tutors, a series of directed tasks carried out between taught sessions and independent study.
