Claire Imhasly

Facilitator & Director

Safeguarding Lead

Claire is a parent, home educator and teacher of more than 20 years, and the founder of The Meadow.  Reimagining education has been a lifelong passion of hers, pushing the creative boundaries for 20 years within the system and for the last decade from outside. She believes in a vision where young people are celebrated, respected and free to develop their authentic selves. Having created a self-directed education with her own daughters, she's dedicated to growing a community where autonomous learners can thrive and develop together. Claire is often outdoors, inspired by wild places and wilder swimming. She loves to read, write and take photographs and is committed to lifelong learning.

Hola I'm Victoria, I'm a parent and have been a home educator for over 13 years now! I'm passionate about education for social change. I approach the world with curiosity, creativity and compassion. My favourite things to do are drawing, photography, singing and dancing. You'll most often find me outdoors exploring with our dogs (I love animals!), open water swimming or camping. I have a background in Womenswear Fashion Design and production. I am Spanish and English and have worked and lived in Spain, Italy and England. I am a fluent Spanish & English speaker. I enjoy exploring new languages and cultures through my love for cooking and baking.

Hi I’m Jen! I love being outside, dogs, running, cycling, triathlon, paddleboarding and camping. I’ve got four dogs and they all have different hobbies too. I’ve been running my own child-lead outdoor set up for six years and I absolutely love it. I’m super excited about joining The Meadow.
