Through recognising and addressing the unique spirit of each child, we aim to inspire in our pupils a capacity and enthusiasm to work arising out of respect and care for the many wonders of the world, for fellow human beings and for oneself.

Rudolf Steiner

• Elmfield places the highest value on respect for the value of each individual

• Throughout the School we seek to nurture the individual potential in each child
• Elmfield School’s curriculum aims to empower each child to find their own direction in life and to celebrate their unique gifts and endeavours
• Elmfield School positively welcomes pupils and applicants from diverse backgrounds and cultures.
• All employees, job applicants, pupils and pupil applicants, will be treated fairly and impartially

Elmfield is aware that there are some concepts in the works of Rudolf Steiner that have been interpreted as nationalistic or racist.  Elmfield rejects any implied racism and is fundamentally and actively committed to the promotion of the dignity and equal rights of each individual.
