Eight lectures for the teachers of the Waldorf School, Stuttgart 12-19 June 1921 ("Supplementary Course" to the Basic Pedagogical Courses of 1919)

=== Contents ===

Two years after the founding of the Waldorf School Rudolf Steiner gave this course for the teachers. With regard to the structure of the upper school, it deals in particular with questions relating to the age of puberty. The importance of the teacher's own development and world view for his or her teaching activities is shown. Furthermore, numerous methodological-didactic as well as anthropological questions are dealt with.

In these eight talks on education for adolescent-aged young people, Steiner addressed the teachers of the first Waldorf school two years after it was first opened. A high school was needed, and Steiner wanted to provide a foundation for study and a guide for teachers already familiar with his approach to the human being, child development, and education based on spiritual science.

Steiner’s education affirms the being of every child within the world of spirit. This approach works within the context of the child’s gradual entry into earthly life, aided by spiritual forces, and children’s need for an education that cooperates with those forces.

Some of Steiner’s remarks may be controversial, but unbiased study will lead to an appreciation of the profound thought and wisdom behind what is presented here.
