Synopsis

This book explores in careful detail the ways in which a school organism can use the Threefold Social Ideals of Rudolf Steiner to organize its administrations. Color illustrations and graphs make the explanations clear and easy to follow. Waldorf schools around the world puzzle over the best ways to construct the governance of their teacher-led schools for maximum economy and support of Waldorf teachers and curriculum. This is a very helpful guide in working through the right form for each Waldorf school: not a formula or a prescription, but a tool for rejuvenation, creativity, and study for the best governance form and administrative form for each independent school!
