About El Farol International Waldorf Steiner School Malaga
To welcome each child as a unique individual, establishing a relationship of reciprocal trust while allowing children to uncover and stimulate their own potential: that is the role schools play in education. At least it is the way the international Waldorf-Steiner movement conceives the schools, and this coincides with the way UNESCO thinks and acts in regards to education.
