About Flybrite: Built by Home Educators, for Home Educators

Sarah

I am a qualified assistant head teacher and a mother of two, with a deep passion for education that places the child at the centre of learning. I believe that every child deserves the opportunity to grow, learn, and flourish at their own pace, developing confidence and curiosity in the areas that genuinely interest them.

Throughout my teaching career, I have worked closely with children who struggled to keep up within mainstream classrooms, particularly those affected by large class sizes, differing needs, and limited individual attention. These experiences have shown me that while schools offer many strengths, the traditional education system is not the right fit for every child.

From both a professional and personal perspective, I strongly advocate for home education as a positive and empowering alternative. Home learning allows education to be tailored to a child's pace, learning style, and interests, encouraging deeper understanding, emotional wellbeing, and a love of learning. As a parent, I have seen firsthand how academic pressures can impact children, and this has strengthened my belief in flexible, child led education.

I am passionate about supporting families in creating a well rounded educational journey that nurtures academic growth, creativity, independence, and confidence, recognising that there is no single path that suits every child.

Jayne

Jayne is a former bank manager and home educating mum to one daughter. After building a successful career in banking, where she developed strong skills in organisation, problem solving, and helping people navigate complex systems, she made the decision to step away from the corporate world to focus on her family.

When it became clear that mainstream public education wasn't the right fit for her daughter, Jayne chose the home education path. What started as a leap of faith quickly became a rewarding journey, as she discovered a whole new world of learning possibilities and a supportive community of like minded families.

Through her own experience, Jayne saw firsthand the challenges home educating families face: keeping track of learning activities, preparing for Local Authority visits, and finding local groups and events. She recognised that the organisational skills she had developed in banking could help solve these problems for others.

Jayne co founded Flybrite to give families the tools she wished she had when starting out. Her vision is to make home education more accessible and less overwhelming, so parents can spend less time on paperwork and more time enjoying the learning journey with their children.
