Do you have a passion for improving outcomes for all children? Could you use your professional skills to help shape the future of education? Are you wanting to make an impact within your community?
As a school governor, you’ll operate at board-level and develop strategic leadership skills and assist in making decisions on a wide range of topics; all while collaboratively improving education within your local community.
We’re currently recruiting volunteers for schools in Newmarket to strengthen their governing boards and enhance outcomes of pupils within your communities. If you feel, you want to make a difference within your community, read on for more details about the role of a governor and how to apply.
Governors make decisions that affect schools and their pupils for years to come; our recent impact survey found that our volunteers bring £9.9 million worth of value to schools each year, and 9/10 volunteers would recommend being a governor to a friend. Becoming a governor gives you ample opportunity for personal and professional development, including exposure to finance and budgeting, safeguarding, HR, strategic planning, and more.
As a governor, you can visit the school to gain an understanding of the culture and ethos and to get the most out of the role as well as have the opportunity to meet children, parents, and teachers, and see the impact of your work first-hand. Governors act as a ‘critical friend’ to their head teacher ensuring accountability and helping to monitor and evaluate the schools progress, budget and staffing. You’ll also help to shape and implement future plans and guide the schools aims, ethos and values.
You don’t need to be a parent or have any specific skills to become a governor as long as you’re over 18 and happy to have a DBS check, you can apply! Professional skills such as HR, finance, law or project management are useful but governing boards are often needing softer skills such as leadership, communication and problem solving alongside a fresh perspective and lived experience within their communities. As a governor, you’ll be supported by the Chair, head teacher and the rest of the governing team.
This vacancy is for a primary school looking to find a governor to sit on their board with experience of Finance and HR. The school is a friendly and caring school with a commitment to providing a quality education for every child that passes through their doors.

InStudents
InStudents is building a global, student-led movement to close the education and employability gap for young people in underserved regions. Across rural and low-income areas, students often lack access to quality career guidance, practical learning, and opportunities to connect with employers. Traditional, top-down aid models frequently fail because they overlook local context and community ownership. InStudents flips this model by empowering local student leaders to design and deliver free, career-focused education that meets the specific needs of their peers.
Through its Equal Opportunities Project (EQOP), students in underserved regions access co-created courses via accessible platforms like WhatsApp, designed in partnership with UK universities and global companies. Meanwhile, the Impact Champions Project builds a global network of student societies tackling local education challenges, creating a model that is both locally led and globally connected. By combining technology, collaboration, and youth empowerment, InStudents is redefining educational equity—ensuring that a student’s potential is determined by ambition, not background.
Project Lead (AI for Educators Initiative)
AI is transforming education, and we are looking for a strategic visionary to lead our 'AI for Educators' initiative.
As the volunteer Service Lead, you will be responsible for maximising the value of this project. You will own the "what" and the "why," collaborating closely with our founder to represent the project's vision, define its strategic roadmap, and prioritise the work for the team. You will act as the voice of the educator, ensuring their needs are at the heart of every decision. You are a key leader in this project and will have the constant support of our founder and senior HR volunteers.
Accountabilities
- Define and communicate the project's vision, goals, and roadmap to the team and stakeholders.
- Own and maintain the project backlog, ensuring it is visible, transparent, and prioritised according to the value it brings to educators.
- Engage with stakeholders (teachers, AI experts, academics) to gather requirements and feedback.
- Write clear work items and acceptance criteria so the team can build the right thing at the right time.
- Collaborate closely with the Delivery Coach and the team to ensure smooth planning and execution.
- Act as the main point of contact for all project-related queries.
Your Impact
The impact you create will be profound. By setting the right strategic direction, you will directly touch the lives of hundreds of teachers in under-resourced communities, giving them the confidence and skills to navigate the future. In turn, their students (numbering in the thousands) will be better prepared for a world shaped by AI.
