Phoebe James

After a decade in classrooms, Phoebe felt there was a fundamental gap in the education system for individual learning and development of the individual and bespoke support for parents.

Taking her experience as a teacher, Senior Leader and Advisor to Governors in both private and state systems, Phoebe decided to build a place where information was accurate, people and establishments were held accountable and personal development in ALL individuals was achieved.

“I grew up on a dairy farm in Herefordshire. Here, amongst nature, early mornings spent attending to livestock before breakfast was a way of life. Through the grind and determination of farm life, I learnt resilience, grit, and the quiet strength that now defines my approach to education.” – Phoebe James, Beyond Books Founder
