Curriculum
The school follows the developmental and spiritual philosophy known as anthroposophy. Established by Rudolf Steiner, an Austrian philosopher, playwright and artist, Anthroposophy is a spiritual path that respects the freedom of each individual, through a holistic understanding of body, soul and spirit.
The Institution offers an accredited course in transpersonal arts for heath, wellbeing and therapy at levels 5 and 7. The Transpersonal Arts for Health and Wellbeing qualification, at level 5, is a one-year, full-time programme delivered face to face at the Institution’s premises.
On successful completion, students may be eligible to progress to the Transpersonal Art Counsellor course at level 7. Students are enrolled on a face-to-face, full-time programme over two years, attending classes for two days a week, with a further day in a community clinical placement. Students can also study on a part-time, modular basis during set intensive teaching blocks over four years.
Both courses are accredited as professional recognition awards by the City & Guilds of London Institute.
The Institution also provides a programme of short courses, ranging in duration from one to four days, in portrait painting, storytelling through art, sensory perception and running your own therapy business.
