“I decided to become a school governor after attending a recruitment webinar in February 2024. Since then, I’ve loved being part of a governing board in a local secondary school. It’s great to know I’m making a difference and supporting the headteacher to make strategic decisions that will directly benefit the pupils and their learning.”
