THE WALDORF PEDAGOGY AND CHILDREN WITH SPECIAL EDUCATION NEEDS

Journal Title: Journal of Special Education and Rehabilitation - Year 2005, Vol 6, Issue 1

Abstract

In the first half of the 20th century, with the opening of the first Waldorf School in 1919, Rudolph Steiner who is the ideological creator of the Waldorf pedagogy presented his own philosophy of education before the scholars. This was done by presenting a complete educational system designed for preschool, elementary school and high school children. To date, this educational model that is thought to be original by many of its characteristics, is successfully established and being practiced in many countries throughout the world. Within the framework of the Waldorf Pedagogy, children with special education needs are given the required attention and particularities that result from the needs of a concrete category of children are being respected.
