Parents like
- Will suit families who are actively looking for a full Steiner-Waldorf education rather than simply a smaller independent school.
Admissions
Admissions at The St Michael Steiner School are shaped far more by educational philosophy than by conventional selectivity, and should appeal to families actively seeking a Steiner-Waldorf pathway from the early years to adulthood. The school should suit parents who want child development, rhythm, creativity and a slower educational tempo to sit at the heart of school life.
Scholarships
Scholarships are not the point here. Families choose St Michael for its educational philosophy, continuity and community than for an awards story.

Inspection snapshot
The overall picture is deeply philosophy led and very different from a standard independent school, with the school openly stating that it does not follow the National Curriculum and that Steiner-Waldorf principles guide its work. Parents should still visit because the decisive issue is not only whether the school feels caring, but whether the educational philosophy genuinely fits their child and family.
