18th Jul 2025

Our Local Academy Council of Governors are a vital part of the Great Schools Trust’s governance, serving as the Trust Board’s eyes and ears at each academy. As a Governor, you’ll help ensure schools deliver exceptional education, uphold our ASPIRE values, and stay closely connected to their local communities.

This is a voluntary but highly rewarding role, offering the chance to make a real difference in the lives of young people while contributing to a strong, values-driven governance framework.

Governors provide local oversight, champion safeguarding and wellbeing, and engage with stakeholders to support each academy’s success. Full training and mentoring are provided, no prior school governance experience is required.

If you’re passionate about education, community, and creating positive change, this is your opportunity to help shape the future of learning.
