Mission

Independent education in the UK runs on goodwill, evenings and weekends. The sector deserves web work that takes it seriously. Bygild exists to make that work available at a fixed fee, on a predictable timeline, without the agency overhead.

We work with a single kind of client: an independent education provider who needs a proper online presence and a reliable place for parents to enrol, read policies, and find term dates. We do not take on brochureware for shops, restaurants, or trades. The specialism is what makes the work good.

Approach

Six operating principles
the studio is built on.

These are what Bygild is accountable for on every engagement, in every tier. If any of them stops being true, the studio stops doing the work that made them true.

I
Fixed scope, fixed fee
Every engagement has a written proposal before work begins. No discovery-phase invoices, no scope drift, no surprise add-ons in week two. You know the price before the 50% engagement fee is taken.
II
Ten working days
A calendar slot is reserved on proposal acceptance. Work begins the same day and concludes within ten working days for Essentials and Standard, fourteen for Premium. Holidays are disclosed on booking.
III
Hand-coded, not templated
No WordPress plugins, no page builders, no theme bloat. Each site is built by hand to the brief. The result loads faster, scores higher on Google, and carries no licensing fees into year two.
IV
Specialism as a discipline
Enrolment forms, term calendars, safeguarding-aware structure (KCSIE 2024, Prevent duty), EYFS-ready nursery pages with Ofsted URN slot, DfE-aligned supplementary-school templates, Hifz progress tracking (sabaq, sabqi, manzil) for madrasahs, Article 28 UK GDPR processor DPA, parent-facing copy, faith sensitivity. We ask the questions generalist agencies do not know to ask.
V
Accountability and refund
One accountable studio lead runs each engagement. If the finished site fails to meet the agreed brief at launch, the engagement fee is refunded in full. It is the studio's standing commitment on every project.
VI
Ownership and portability
The client owns the domain, the hosting account, and the source code. Departing the studio means a clean handover with documentation. There is no platform lock-in.
Who we serve

Four kinds of organisation.
Every engagement shaped to one of them.

Founder

Led by Khalid Mohamed,
remote-first, UK-wide.

Bygild started with a pattern. Khalid kept walking past supplementary schools, weekend madrasahs, and small tutoring companies running on Facebook pages, half-finished Wix sites, or nothing at all. Good schools, doing serious work, invisible online. The agencies they spoke to quoted three-month timelines and four-figure fees for sites that should take ten days. The work was not complex. It was specific. It was overdue.

He founded the studio in 2026, while reading for a degree in IT Management for Business at the University of West London. Bygild builds for one kind of client, on purpose: UK independent education providers. That specialism is what makes the work fast, fixed-priced, and right the first time.

Khalid leads every engagement end to end. The studio intentionally remains small so that the person on the Strategy Session is the person building the site. You deal with the builder directly, not an account manager.

Studio guarantee

Full refund if the finished
site misses the agreed brief.

Every engagement includes a written proposal that defines scope, pages, integrations, and acceptance criteria. Where an engagement concludes with the studio unable to meet those criteria after the included revision rounds, the engagement fee is refunded in full, with no conditions attached.

The guarantee applies to every tier and every engagement. It is the studio's standing commitment on every project we accept.
