Steiner Waldorf Schools Fellowship - Teacher Training

Teacher Training - Teacher Education Programmes

A range of teacher education pathways is currently available in the Steiner Waldorf movement in Britain and Ireland.
Provision includes publicly funded, privately funded, part-time, residential and full-time courses. SWSF supports courses and programmes seeking forms of public accreditation; SWSF is not an accrediting body itself. It is advisable for prospective students to check that the qualification the course gives is applicable in their home country.
Steiner Waldorf teacher education programmes meet together to study, research and support each other.
Please note: all courses are administratively independent of SWSF; please contact the courses for information.
