Crossfields Institute Level 4 Diploma in Steiner Waldorf Early Childhood Studies (EYE)
The training course was founded in 1993 by Lynne Oldfield. It is led and managed by qualified Waldorf practitioners supported by a team of highly experienced, subject specialist tutors. The course reflects the qualities and intention of Waldorf education with an emphasis upon building an inclusive and diverse community of learning, through a holistic and integrated curriculum. The qualification is Ofqual-regulated and awarded by Crossfields Institute.
This course, based in the heart of London, provides students with the skills to become an accredited Level 4 early years practitioner over two years.
Quality Mark in Steiner Waldorf Early Childhood Studies
We are also now offering, with NESWEC and Crossfields, an alternative pathway, ‘A Quality Mark in Steiner Waldorf Early Childhood Studies’. This part time two year course encompasses all the level 4 content without the workload of academic assignments. A full and relevant Level 3 is required for entry to the Quality Mark.
There is then a further option to proceed to a Level 5 qualification.

Thank you for everything, doing the training was easily one of the most beautiful, inspirational and transformative experiences of my life, I think second only to mothering my own children.
