Abstract

In the education world, Waldorf education exists in some countries. Waldorf education revitalized the Indonesian education issue to improve individual well-being. This study reviews Waldorf education in Indonesia. We collected data via online content analysis focused on the Waldorf school website and Facebook. It was reported that Waldorf education only exists in big cities such as Jakarta, Bandung, Yogyakarta, Balikpapan, and Bali. All Waldorf education in Indonesia only offered play gardens, except Arunika Waldorf and Madu Waldorf, which offer an elementary school. All of the websites from Jagat Alit, Arunika, Bambino Preschool, Madu Waldorf, and Kulila Playgroup provide all the information about their school. However, for Denia Beun Play Garden, the information was mostly updated on their Facebook account. The implementation of Waldorf philosophy was well implemented in all schools. The adjustment point only on cultures because of the differences between Europe culture and Indonesian culture.
