Madrid Desk, Sep 26 (EFE).- Waldorf schools around the world are marking the 100th anniversary of their teaching methodology, considered by many as a revolutionary and liberating but by its detractors as cultish.
Created by Austrian philosopher Rudolf Steiner (1861-1925) shortly after the First World War, the Waldorf project was born in the German city of Stuttgart as a school for children of the workers at the Waldorf-Astoria cigarette factory.
Nowadays, there are more than 3,000 Waldorf schools in 90 countries across the world.
