Peter Chambers is the Headteacher at Holywood Steiner School, an alternative to mainstream education that’s making a powerful impact on the lives of pupils and teachers alike.

In today's episode, we talk about:

How the school has doubled in budget, size and staff since 2020
Why most people aren't aware of alternative education in Northern Ireland
The power of delaying "sitting at a desk” until 6-years-old
Teaching kids how to cook three-course meals, woodworking and a second language
Why having smaller class sizes makes a big difference
Creating an environment where teachers can actually teach instead of constantly managing poor behaviour
Why his pupils call teachers by their first names and don't wear a school uniform
His countercultural policies on screens in the classroom
And the importance of creating an environment that encourages (and celebrates) failure.
