What exactly is a school in TA? Ideas differ about that, though there is some consensus based on (Barnes, 1977): “A TA School is a number of people under a common personal influence, who have a common theoretical point of view and use the same clinical method. A school can be identified by its unique leadership, canon and group culture“.

In a free downloadable TA magazine we have asked representatives of 5 schools to share their experiences and ideas. This resulted in 5 coherent and clear articles about the history and development of Transactional Analysis. We thought also to ask Keith Tudor to share the story of the co-creational approach. You can download, read and let us know the answer that you give on the following questions: 
What is a TA school for you, how do you work with TA and how important is it? And what significance does the evolved history have for your daily practice?
