Governors for Schools

Governors for Schools is a charity that sources and supports dedicated volunteers on to governing boards. They believe the key to improving school performance is effective governance, and through finding, nurturing, and supporting a committed network of governors they help to drive systematic change in how schools operate. By strategically matching skilled individuals with vacancies, they aim to improve educational outcomes for children across England and Wales. They offer specialist governor, chair, and trustee recruitment services as part of their mission to build exceptional boards. 

Governors for Schools focus on building diverse, knowledgeable, and committed boards that drive positive change and enhance pupil outcomes. Their services are designed to help schools and trusts access the governance expertise they need to thrive and their aspirations are clear and focused. Through their recruitment services and ongoing support, they advocate for schools and trusts investing in governance, mental health and wellbeing, diversity on governing boards, volunteer training and peer support, and valuable links between schools and industry.
