We are looking for a dedicated parent to join our governing board as a Parent Governor. This is a fantastic opportunity to play a key role in shaping the future of our school and ensuring the very best outcomes for our pupils.

What do governors do?
Governors don’t manage the school day-to-day – instead, they provide oversight and guidance for the school’s long-term development. This includes financial management, strategic planning, and holding school leaders to account.

What does a Parent Governor do?
As a parent governor, you’ll:
✔ Work as part of the board to make sure it carries out its duties effectively.
✔ Bring a valuable parental perspective to discussions and decision-making.
✔ Contribute your skills and experiences for the benefit of all children in the school.
(Please note: Parent Governors do not represent or speak on behalf of the parent body.)

Who we’re looking for:
We’d love to hear from parents who are:

  • Committed to improving outcomes for children.
  • Curious, willing to learn, and keen to develop new skills.
  • Confident in bringing their own expertise and ideas to the table.

Skills that would be especially valuable include:
Finance • SEND (Special Educational Needs & Disabilities) • Health & Safety • Data analysis • HR • Legal expertise

What’s the commitment?

  • Full Governing Board meetings: 6 per year (one evening per half term, 17:15–19:15 at school).
  • Committee meetings: Staff & Resources Committee and Students & Curriculum Committee, each meeting once per half term.
  • Additional involvement may include specific responsibilities linked to your skills or interests.

✨ No prior experience is needed – just a commitment to learning and making a difference. Full training and support are provided.

📩 Interested? Apply now and help shape the future of our school community.

Requirements

  • Demonstrated interest in finance and a desire to pursue a career in this field.
  • Strong numerical and analytical skills.
  • Excellent attention to detail and accuracy.
  • Familiarity with Microsoft Office Suite, particularly Excel.
  • Ability to work effectively in a team and independently.
  • Strong communication skills, both written and verbal.
  • Previous experience in finance or administration is desirable but not required.
