BACKGROUND: COVID-19-related lockdowns and homeschooling have imposed a substantial burden on school-aged children and parents. Waldorf education is a reform-educational concept. Little is known about the situation of German Waldorf families under pandemic conditions. METHODS: A cross-sectional, online, parent-proxy survey was conducted regarding the third pandemic wave. The primary outcome was parents' support needs, assessed with questions from the German COPSY (COVID-19 and PSYchological Health) study; the secondary outcome was children's HRQoL (KIDSCREEN-10, proxy version). RESULTS: We analyzed questionnaires from 431 parents of 511 Waldorf students aged 7 to 17 years. While 70.8% of Waldorf parents (WPs) reported a general need for support in dealing with their children, 59.9% of COPSY parents (CPs) indicated this need. WPs' support needs in dealing with their children's academic demands were similar to CPs' needs but relatively higher in terms of dealing with emotions and moods, behavior, and relationships within the family. WPs sought support mainly from school and teachers (65.6%). Support needs were high, although WPs rated their children's HRQoL higher than CPs. CONCLUSIONS: Our results underline the substantial pandemic-related burden on families across school types. WPs participating in this survey gave evidence that supports should focus on academic demands as well as psychosocial issues.
