Broaden your career opportunities with a Postgraduate Diploma in Waldorf Education and Creative Pedagogies, jointly delivered by Bath Spa University and the Waldorf Learning Foundation. - Develop extensive knowledge of Waldorf Education and creative pedagogies to foster both creative teaching and teaching for creativity. - Learn through a mixture of residential and online sessions, designed to help you apply theory to practice while maintaining work-life balance. - Graduate with professional accreditation and a portfolio that demonstrates expertise in the Waldorf Teacher Standards. Expand your career horizons and nurture your passion for creativity in education. If you have a teaching qualification, this ‘top-up’ course has been designed with you in mind. Our Postgraduate Diploma can be completed within 12-16 months to enable you to develop both academically and professionally, while maintaining a healthy study and work-life balance. This is a low-residency course; the majority of workshops will be held online but there will be several in-person, experiential workshops to develop your artistic practice, practical craft and outdoor teaching skills. During your studies, you'll create a Professional Practice Portfolio. The portfolio is aligned to the Waldorf Teaching Standards and will ensure that, on graduation, you're a fully qualified Waldorf Education professional. This enhances your employability by providing you with a unique set of skills for facilitating creativity in education. On completion of the Postgraduate Diploma, you have the opportunity to undertake an applied research module which will enable you to develop an area of specific interest and gain a full Master's qualification. The programme is in the process of being accredited by the Steiner Waldorf Schools Fellowship, according to national and international standards for Waldorf teachers, and is jointly delivered by Bath Spa University and the Waldorf Learning Foundation.
