Hi Pauline, Thanks for your reply.
I was thinking about the Steiner school as I hear that they are more rounded in their teaching - looking more at life skills and individualism, encouraging lateral thinking etc. I didn't know that they didn't do maths etc.
I would love to hear more about the school from you - how it is structured etc. The one thing I was a little worried about was that if you send your child to this type of school - would the be viewed differently by other kids that go to mainstream school, would they be seen as wierd? I would really like Kyla to go to a school where they take a more individual approach and where she is encouraged to think laterally and taught life skills rather than trying to pigeon hole her into structures.
