Roots and Wings School is a Brussels school offering preschool, primary and secondary education under British Curriculum, including Cambridge IGCSE and A-Levels. The school serves ages 2–18 and uses a project-based approach across all stages. In preschool (2.5 to 5), two teachers care for up to 12 children in a play-based program that builds social skills, emotional awareness, imagination and self-directed learning through yoga, gardening, cooking and storytelling. Primary learning uses self-organised learning environment (SOLE) sessions and integrated themes that blend maths, sciences, language skills and the arts, with the outdoors in a wooded park acting as a second classroom. Secondary education covers the British Curriculum, preparing students for IGCSEs and A-Levels, with an individualized journey emphasizing collaboration, inclusiveness, innovation, creativity, resilience and curiosity. Founded in 2009 by Soraya Yavari, Roots and Wings is Brussels school with a multinational team and parent involvement, including sharing. The school welcomes international families.
