Canterbury Steiner School achieves good academic results. We aim to
ensure that our pupils leave the school well-qualified for the next stage of
their lives. But real education should strive for more
than just good intellectual skills.
It is equally important, we believe, to help young people develop an active and lively imagination. Our pupils engage in an unusually wide variety of artistic and practical activities to help them explore their creative potential. The aim is not a career in the arts—though some make that choice—but to acquire the creative attitude which enables a productive approach in any walk of life
A full and satisfying adult life also depends on emotional
maturity and good social skills. We work to help pupils develop the
emotional security, enthusiasm and social awareness essential for teamwork and real self-confidence. And with teenagers we seek to
foster the self-discipline necessary for adult independence.
