Make a big change to small lives

You can make a valuable contribution to the education of children in your local area - Volunteer in school governance.

Effective school governance needs a committed team of people with a range of skills to ensure the children in our communities have the best opportunities for learning, development and achievement. We all have a part to play.

Governors are essential in ensuring accountability for pupils’ educational outcomes, effective use of school funds and setting and pursuing a clear and ambitious vision for every pupil. They also provide support to the school leaders who undertake these responsibilities.

A range of relevant training is provided to support governors in their role and make the most of everyone’s commitment.

We believe that strong school governance:

· Ensures every child has access to a high-quality education

· Benefits from people’s different experiences and backgrounds

· Enables governors to develop transferable professional and personal skills.



Become part of a valuable team making a positive impact on children’s learning and achievement. Join a school governing board this term.
