admissions and contributions

Steiner education currently operates outside of the state maintained sector. Aside from some charitable donations and other grants, we are entirely dependent upon the support of parents through their contributions of money, time and work. Although raising money is essential for the running of the School, our policy is to be inclusive rather than exclusive. Prospective parents are invited to contact the school for further details on admissions and financial contributions.
