About Jenaplan school

Jenaplan education is based on the pedagogy of Peter Petersen. It centers around four activities: dialogue, play, work, and celebration. Pupils learn in mixed-age groups. The school is seen as a living community, not just a place of instruction.

Strengths

  • Strong emphasis on community
  • World orientation as an integrated subject area
  • Celebrations and rhythm create stability
  • Mixed ages encourage empathy and collaboration
  • The child is approached as a whole person

Keep in mind

  • Individual performance is less measurable
  • Requires openness to an alternative learning approach
