Jennifer Power's interest in Steiner goes back to when her son was a pre-schooler and she began leading Steiner parent and child groups. Last year she decided she wanted to develop this experience to work with older children and pursue her interest in Steiner outdoor practice.
Last October she enrolled on the North of England Steiner Waldorf Early Childhood Studies programme (NESWEC) to gain the Level 5 qualification. This is a three-year course, described as being for 'hands, heart and head', covering the principles and practice of the Steiner philosophy through distance learning, placements and weekend residential schools. Completion of year two provides the Level 4 qualification while a final year of full-time, supported work placement achieves the Level 5.
