Become a school governor
Whatever your academic background or current employment, voluntarily joining a school board as a governor, or an Academy as a trustee, is a fantastic way to develop your professional skills. You can learn completely new skills or apply existing ones within a new context, broadening your experience – all whilst helping improve educational outcomes within your local community.
There is a current shortage of skilled volunteers to serve as governors across the country, particularly in the South East. Applicants of all ages are needed and you don’t have to be a parent to apply.
What does a school governor do?
Schools benefit hugely from the time and expertise brought by their governors who have three main roles:
- setting the strategy and ethos of the school
- holding the Head Teacher to account for the educational outcomes of all students
- ensuring financial accountability.

Watch on YouTubeHow can I become a governor?
Governors for Schools is a registered charity that offers a free service, linking willing volunteers to appropriate vacancies at schools in their locality.
Being a school governor gives me an invaluable opportunity to play a positive role in educational outcomes for young people in my community. I cherish using the skills, knowledge and networks I have developed throughout my career to make this happen. As a governor I am exposed to decision-making in different contexts. Working with a wider group of professionals is excellent for personal development. Let Governors for Schools match you with a school in your locality that needs your perspective, knowledge and decision-making skills.
