    Escola el Tiller in Bellaterra

    The Waldorf-Steiner "el Til.ler" Association preschool belongs to the World Association of Waldorf Kindergartens. These groups allow parents to provide their children with a Waldorf education in the years of voluntary schooling. All staff members involved in the organization of the preschool groups have a degree in educational science and specific training in the Waldorf-Steiner pedagogy. At the present moment, forty children are participating in classes. The school covers primary up to 12 and the idea is to carry on until at least 16

    "Our son goes to the Escola el Tiller in Bellaterra near Barcelona. It's a Waldorf/ Rudolf Steiner school for any parents looking for alternative education for their children . The syllabus is in Catalan but the system is very different and at the moment it caters for children from 2 to 12 . I guess one of the main differences with the education system is that they cater for the individual and the children learn by experiencing and not by learning for exams . I would really recommend visiting the school if you want your children to integrate into Catalunya but not necessarily into the Catalan education system" (SG)
