Become a Governor
Make a lasting difference in our schools.
Make a lasting difference
At Trinity, governance matters.
School governors play an important role in helping our schools thrive. Working alongside Principals and Trust leaders, they bring experience, fresh perspectives and constructive challenge to the decisions that shape each academy.
They ask the right questions, support leaders and help shape the future of their school — keeping the needs of pupils and communities at the heart of decision-making.
Every school context is unique, and so is every governing body.
Joining a Local Governing Body is an opportunity to use your professional and life experience to make a meaningful contribution, while developing your own knowledge and meeting people from across the Trust.
You’ll be supported throughout, with a structured induction, training and guidance from the Trinity team.

What you gain as a governor

Meaningful local impact
Numbers show progress, but people make it happen. As a governor, your time directly shapes the learning environment for hundreds of children in your community.
Broadened professional network
Collaborate closely with a diverse group of professionals, local residents, and educators across West Yorkshire who share a commitment to improving social mobility and educational standards.
