WYNSTONES SCHOOL   WYNSTONES SCHOOL Church Lane

Wynstones offers a Steiner education in a beautiful settingThe school is set well back from the road in 11 acres of grounds, next to Whaddon church, with views across Gloucestershire's fields and hills to all sides. Our 100 year old main building is a reassuring central space, and each of our newer classroom blocks has been placed sensitively nearby to create a 'village centre' feel - helping us engender a real community of pupils, parents, teachers and staff within the school. The school works within the Steiner Waldorf ethos which is to enable each child to develop and balance their spiritual, intellectual, emotional and practical qualities from Kindergarten onwards. The school has a non-selective approach to education and believes in achieving high standards in all years without undue stress or a competitive system. For more information see our prospectus Our recent inspection report states: "The overall quality of the education provided by Wynstones School is excellent. In particular the curriculum and other activities are of high quality. The pupils are well cared for and appreciate the support that they receive from their teachers with respect for both their personal and academic development. The pupils' spiritual, moral, social and cultural development is outstanding as is their behaviour and their realtionships with each other and the staff. Pupils of all ages and abilities make good progress in their learning and the overall welfare, health and safety of pupils is also good." "What the school does well: - it promotes the personal development of the pupils both as individuals and in their groups very effectively; - it provides outstanding opportunities for artistic and creative development; - it provides high quality and often outstanding teaching; and - it provides outstanding breadth and quality of curriculum" SIS - Schools Inspection Service - November 2009
