The Future of Learning
At Free Path, we believe in a learning journey that empowers students to explore, discover, and grow at their own pace. Our educational philosophy is rooted in the principles of goal-directed learning and the idea that children should have the freedom to learn in ways that best suit their unique interests and talents.
Our method was modelled on ground breaking insights of Daniel Greenberg outlined beautifully in Peter Gray’s book “Free to Learn”. As well as the numerous books, studies and blogs by Daniel Greenberg himself.
Free Path’s innovative approach, provides each child with a goals-notebook, reviewed each morning. Creating a self-imposed, dynamic curriculum that they help shape, gives them the intrinsic motivation to strive and solidifies healthy goal achieving habits.
As they age and grow to maturity, young learners notice their approach to adult society. With little pressure to fit in a specific way, the learner is free to pick their own path and align their goals to what feels right to them.
Our full-time program offers learners the chance to immerse themselves in a wide variety of subjects, with the flexibility to explore areas of interest in depth. Unlike traditional schools, our full-time students are empowered to guide their own learning journey, making choices about the projects they undertake and the skills they develop. We give them the freedom to learn at their own pace, ensuring they remain engaged and excited about their education.
These members are offered a vote in the weekly meeting. The meeting determines, rules of behaviour, staff hiring, procuring additional learning resources, and expenses.
Not every family wants full-time schooling. For those who are looking for an educational experience to complement their homeschooling, our part-time program allows students to attend Free Path two days a week.
These young people benefit from our free learning approach and social engagement with full time students. They will engage with diverse people and projects that enhances their home education.
Our School Day Experiences are perfect for schools of parents looking to offer their students something extra. Each day will provide hands-on, experiential learning that encourages students to think critically and creatively.
These experiences give students the freedom to learn through play, collaboration, and exploration—qualities that are often missing from traditional school environments.
During the school holidays, Free Path continues to offer exciting and enriching experiences that allow children to continue learning in a fun, pressure-free environment. The school holiday period can be a source of stress for parents and boredom for students, so we continue our operating hours as we understand that life and learning never ends.
Students on break from the traditional education system can join out learners and participate in projects, outdoor activities, and their own creative endeavours. Whether it's building something from scratch, exploring nature, or engaging in a group challenge, these experiences foster independence and creativity.
At Free Path, we understand that the world of education is changing. Gone are the days when rigid curriculums and standardized tests were the only path to success. Our vision is to create a free learning environment that encourages curiosity and passion-driven exploration.
We believe in fostering not just academic excellence but emotional and social development as well. This holistic approach ensures that every child is well-prepared for life beyond the classroom. Free Path is a place where children are truly free to learn, to explore their passions, and to develop the confidence to pursue their dreams.
Inspired by Danial Greenberg’s educational philosophy, we firmly believe that children thrive when they are given autonomy over their own education. At Free Path, our students are encouraged to take charge of their education, following their natural curiosity and engaging with subjects that inspire them. This free learn approach results in students who are not only academically successful but also confident, self-motivated, and ready to take on the world.
Are you ready to join an education revolution? At Free Path, we believe that every child deserves the opportunity to learn free in a supportive, dynamic environment that honours their individuality. Whether you’re looking for a full-time learning solution, a part-time program, enriching day experiences, or to occupy time during school holidays, Free Path has something for everyone. Join us today and see how we can help your child unlock their full potential.
Our beautiful campus is designed to facilitate open-ended exploration and discovery. With both indoor and outdoor learning spaces, students can move freely between environments that best support their learning needs. Whether they’re planting in our community garden, building soming in the workshop, working on a music piece, or crafting in the art studio, they have the freedom to learn freely and express themselves.
