TESTIMONIALS
Read the heart felt testimonials of our parents. If you'd like to speak with a parent about their experience at Drumduan directly, send a request to reception@drumduan.org and we will connect you. Many of our families found Drumduan and Steiner Education after being let down by the state school system and needing something different for their child.
Some have searched specifically for a Steiner Education and found Drumduan School, set in a spacious woodland campus, with magnificent views overlooking Findhorn Bay and the Moray Firth in the north east coast of Scotland.

BEYOND THE
SCHOOL
On graduation from Drumduan School, usually between the age of 18 and 19 years, students may follow a number of different paths...
UNIVERSITY AND COLLEGE
We encourage students to take their time in deciding if university or college is the right next step for them. Too often, school leavers are pushed into applying for university simply because that is 'what you do' after school. We hope to support our graduating students to make the choices that are right for them. This may, of course, include applying for university.
In most cases, universities have set requirements for state-exams as a requirement for entry. Drumduan provides the level 2 and level 3 Integrative Education Diploma's (further details here). They involve coursework-based assessments that dovetail into our Waldorf curriculum and are validated for UCAS entry to Higher education . We are committed to supporting our graduating students to achieve a place at university or college should they wish to do so. The portfolios and references that the students generate during their time at Drumduan can support their application for work or a place at College.
FURTHER EDUCATION AND EXAMS
For some Drumduan students, a particular interest in a subject or possible career or vocation may lead them to enrolling in exam-based courses at further education colleges. We anticipate that the high level of study in the wide rage of subjects of our curriculum will equip Drumduan students excellently for more formal examinations should this be the route that they decide to follow.
EMPLOYMENT AND APPRENTICESHIPS
As work experience and internships are an integral part of our upper school programme, some graduating students may decide to join the world of work directly, or take up an apprenticeship, possibly building on what they have experienced during internships whilst at Drumduan.
TRAVEL
Some students may decide that after many years of school-based education, they are ready and keen to travel the world. Having been involved in numerous social projects during their time at Drumduan, both in Scotland and further afield, it is likely that some may want to return to organisations that they have already worked with for a longer period
