The Garden Bristol

The Garden has been offering a self directed and consent based learning community in Bristol since 2016, so we are well-established with a strong culture of mutual respect and openness. We’re part of a rapidly growing movement for small, independent groups who take inspiration from a variety of educational and other philosophies or movements, as well as current evidence in education, child development and motivation theory, to build unique spaces where young people can truly thrive. Our vision prioritises emotional wellbeing, our social culture, a learner-led approach and the physical environment.
