    Question Tell me about Steiner schools.

    There are a couple in our area & one is 5 minutes down the road from mum & dad, 15 minutes away from the house I just put an application in for.

    Other than having someone say once, 'if you can do it, do it', I don't know all that much about them.

    From what I've read I think it would suit my kids... my girls at least (not so sure about DS yet).

    This one has less that 50 kids. I'm guessing maybe 30. I didn't want to go a school too small (DD1's first had 12 kids), but I think this one could be ok.

    Can anyone point me in the direction of a good site that explains the schooling/philosophy properly?

    Anyone have experience already?

    Does the school have a website?
    We're looking at one near us too and they have a lot of info on their site.

    I did google them, but only based on their address. Couldn't remember their name.
    Will try again

    the one here is silver tree steiner - you could take a look just for a rough idea. I'm assuming they're all more or less similar
