  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.

  Waldorf education provides a developmentally appropriate, experiential, and academically demanding educational approach. It seeks to stimulate lifelong learning in all students while also allowing them to fully utilize their individual abilities.  Hence, the objective of this study is to establish how the seven core principles of Waldorf education will assist children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) to flourish. The Waldorf method, according to Priyanti and Warmansyah (2021), is utilized to help children attain a delicate blend of genuine experience, which leads to a strong level of confidence in their abilities. This applies the acquired abilities to use especially for ASD children. Furthermore, the significance of this paper can also assist the educational system in identifying the methodological underpinnings that will benefit these special kids. This study is a review of the literature to determine how the seven key principles of Waldorf education support children's moral growth and encourage free and independent thought, which promotes self-discovery. ASD children benefit greatly from educational philosophies that encourage the development of successful social-emotional behaviors and academic skills. Waldorf education, an educational philosophy that emphasizes developmentally appropriate hands-on learning, has been shown to improve social and academic outcomes for children with disabilities such as ASD.
