Learning close to nature: Farm of youth farm Waiblingen is planning school with vision!

Waiblingen, Deutschland - in Waiblingen something happens! The youth farm and the free school have considered exciting cooperation. The first mayor, Peter Schäfer, does not see this initiative as a competition with existing schools, but as a valuable addition to the educational offer in the region. This could be a promising solution for the acute lack of space, because a new building on the youth farm in Korber Straße is brought into play as a potential location.

The planned concept of the free school focuses on natural learning that enables children to contact animals. This approach is entirely in the tradition of newer education initiatives that have increasingly come into focus in Germany in recent years. It is no coincidence that more and more alternative schools, such as those that are currently being launched in Saarland, rely on similar principles.

new impulses for free learning

In Saarland, five motivated women have initiated the foundation of a free school who would like to integrate ecological and natural learning into class as central elements. Here the students should learn without a fixed class association and binding homework, which is a real revolution in everyday school life.
The initiators have big plans: In the school year 2024/25 they would like to start with 25 children and ultimately establish the first courtyard and nature school in Saarland. In order for this to succeed, they are eagerly working on the financing and the creation of an educational concept. A school fee of 200 euros per month will be required for the parents.

Review of the developments

The developments related to the free school in Waiblingen and the great concept of natural learning show that many parents are looking for new educational channels. The possibilities vary, but the common goal is clear: the promotion of creativity and individual learning.
The platform for free alternative schools, which is committed to a broader view of such schools, supports them and offers a networking service for interested parties. The job market on Freie- Alternativ Schulen.de represents a valuable resource not only for employees, but also for schools who pursue similar concepts and search for suitable partners.

whether in Waiblingen or in Saarland - the educational landscape is changing and offers more and more opportunities for creative approaches. It remains exciting to observe how these new concepts will develop and prove in practice.
