Education
S4 E3: Interview with Peter Hartkamp, advocate for youth rights and founder of a Sudbury school in The Netherlands
2023-07-23
When your child tells you they would rather be dead than be in school, it would make any parent take action.
Peter Hartkamp and his wife did just that - by taking their daughter out of mainstream education and setting up their own school in The Netherlands. After some failed attempts at circumventing the education system there, they now run the successful Sudbury School in Amersfoort and this interview is all about the school and why Peter kept pushing the government in The Netherlands to allow him to create this change for his daughter and the many other children who now attend the school.
For more info on the school, check out their website:

Peter's book "Beyond Coercive Education" is available in various places - check it out if you would like to hear more about his thoughts on children's rights.
Enjoy!
I'd love to hear from you, get in touch with me :)
