Philosophy
The school is inspired by
Jiddu Krishnamurti's philosophy and his life work. Walden's Path is based on the notion that children need to be able to get to information following their own path, construct and create their own knowledge and paths.
Learning Approach
Walden's Path School follows The Studio Approach with Science, Mathematics, Language and Literature. The School admits students in grades 1 and below. Walden's Path School developed an approach and methodology that enables children to discover multiple ways of solving problems in Mathematics and applying concepts in Science.
Studio Based Learning
Walden's Path School follows Studio-Based Learning and is inspired by John Dewey's work and education philosophy. Unlike a lab that uses standardized procedures with set equipment to reproduce a protocol in order to obtain set outcomes, a Studio is a space that invigorates, inspires and provides an opportunity to create, construct and test objectives and hypotheses and analyse data.
