Local Governors Vacancies

We are looking for passionate and committed people to join our local governing bodies across our schools. This is a rewarding opportunity to play a vital role in shaping the future of education in your community and to make a real difference for children and families.

Local governors provide support and challenge to school leaders, ensuring high standards and helping every child to thrive. You don’t need previous governance experience – full training and support will be provided. What matters most is a genuine interest in education, strong values, and a commitment to improving outcomes for all children, especially the most disadvantaged.

Serving as a governor is also a fantastic way to develop your own professional skills, build connections, and contribute to something that really matters locally.

If you are interested in learning more or applying, contact Claire Hogg directly for further details - chogg@merciatrust.co.uk.

The closing date for expressions of interest is 17 October 2025.

At Mercia Learning Trust, we are committed to kindness, integrity and diligence. We exist to empower everyone in our community, especially the most disadvantaged, to succeed.
