Philosophy

The school is inspired by Jiddu Krishnamurti's philosophy and his life work.[6] 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.[7][8]

The Atelier Studio

The Atelier Studio at Walden's Path documents the progress of a child with focus on child's learning to ensure their originality, creative thinking, emotional development and social consciousness.[2]

The Magnet School

The Magnet School[9] follows The Studio Approach with Science, Mathematics, Language and Literature. The Magnet School is admitting students in grades 1-4 for the 2016 academic year.[10] The Magnet School developed an approach and methodology that enables children to discover multiple ways of solving problems in Mathematics and applying concepts in Science.[11][12]

The Experiential Studio serves grades 1 - IV while The Scholar’s Studio serves grades V - XII.

Studio Based Learning

The Magnet 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.[13]
