Help transform access to classical education in state schools. Join Classics for All as a Trustee and support our mission to advance social mobility and educational equity across the UK.
Classics for All is a national charity working to ensure that every young person - regardless of background - has the opportunity to study Latin, Ancient Greek, ancient history and classical civilisation. Since 2010, we’ve supported over 1,300 state schools and reached more than 185,000 pupils, many in areas of high deprivation.
We are now seeking new Trustees to join our engaged and collaborative Board as we enter an exciting new phase of growth. Our focus is on expanding our reach, deepening our impact, and embedding social mobility and inclusion at the heart of everything we do.
We are particularly interested in individuals who bring:
- A strong commitment to educational equity and social justice
- Lived experience of the barriers we aim to address
- Skills in legal, digital transformation, or marketing and communications
- Strategic thinking and a collaborative mindset
We welcome applications from first-time trustees and are especially keen to hear from people based outside London and the South East, and from backgrounds currently underrepresented in the charity sector and Classics education.
This is a general trustee role. All Trustees contribute to strategic planning, support the executive team, and act as ambassadors for our mission. Board meetings are held quarterly (mostly online, with one in-person meeting per year), and we host an annual away day.
If you believe in the power of education to change lives - and want to help make classical subjects accessible to all - we’d love to hear from you.
We want a future where every child can unlock the wisdom, wonder, and imagination of the ancient world, regardless of background or circumstance.
