Meet the staff
Sophie Hale
Primary Education
B-Ed (Hons) with QTS
I am a primary school teacher with a passion for outdoor learning. My husband and I have three young children who we raise in a Montessori-inspired way. I have always been in awe of the Danish model of education and passionate about forest schools, truly believing in the power of child-led, real life learning.
I knew what I wanted for my own children, so I created The Fledglings.
Jane Gwynne
Early Years Education
BA (Hons) PGCE with QTS
I am a primary school teacher and a mum of four. I have taught children of all ages for over 20 years- from managing nurseries and running reception classes to fostering teenagers, and everything in between! I love the creative freedom that comes with teaching children in such a unique, bespoke environment; following their interests and building on all of their individual talents.
Kennedy Harris
Early Years Education
NCFE CACHE Level 3
I am a mum of two girls aged 3 and 6 and I love working with children. I have worked in the education sector for the past 10 years and I am passionate about helping children to learn and teaching them new skills. I love finding out about what each child is interested in and thinking of ways to build on their interests and experiences.
Ruby Groom
Early Years Education
NCFE CACHE Level 3
Coming from a big family, all I have known throughout my life is being surrounded by children- I have (I think) 16 nieces and nephews and spend a lot of my free time looking after them! I love working with children, especially in a small group or 1:1 basis.
Rachel Rockwood
Adventure Yoga
Rachel is a very experienced yoga teacher who we are lucky to have every Wednesday morning. Each child starts their week with a 45 minute yoga and mindfulness session to help regulate their bodies.
