Every aspect of Steiner education seeks to develop the proper relationship between intellectual, physical and emotional development - the head, hand and heart. Thus each activity, each day, each week and each term, will reflect this 'head, heart and hand' balance.
The approach is always from the whole to the parts, the concrete to abstract, so that learning takes place in an integrated way. Subjects are studied in relation to each other so that children perceive their unity, rather than splitting them into separate compartment.
