The Alfa Project has provided an innovative secondary education in East Clare since 2001; a richly developed and integrated programme of active learning, based on the Steiner/Waldorf curriculum. Our holistic approach is dedicated to supporting the full development of human faculties, enabling our students to become socially reponsible citizens, confident in their gifts and ready to meet a changing world. We incorporate multidisciplinary learning with a broad academic, environmental, and practical foundation. We support diversity in the different cultures, learning styles, and needs of our students.
Our students' ages range from 13 – 17 years of age, a full-time programme equivalent to the Junior Certificate for 13-16 year olds and part-time opportunities for 16 and 17 year olds. Groups normally cover a 2 year age spread.
