This is the second part of a conversation between David Schwartz,
Milena Frech, Leonie Lechle und Camilla Meisterjahn with the arts
teacher Jennifer Kowalewski. They continue talking about Jiddu
Krishnamurti’s philosophy of education and the question how it can
be put into practice in schools. Jennifer used to teach at
Brockwood Park School in England – a boarding school that was
founded by the Indian philosopher in 1969. She explains how young
people are enabled to take responsibility for their actions at this
school. Other topics she addresses are: the significance of
pastoral care, healthy boundaries and critical thinking. Permission
