No, just explain that you were born in the UK, all your schooling was in English and your language at home and work is English.

In fact, there is hardly any explanation that you will need to provide other than your application forms and documents for proof, which will say it all for you.

Your birth certificate shows you were born in the U.K.

Item 7 on Application Form - Your indication that your native language is English.

Your Background Declaration shows where you received all of your schooling, plus the copies of your diplomas that you will send in proves and shows the U.K. as location.

Your Work Experience will also show the U.K. as where you obtained it, plus your employment reference letters will come from U.K. registered employers.
