Volunteer Governor positions

We are looking for new trustees who strongly identify with our school's purpose, ambitions and values to join our governing body.

As one of the largest Catholic schools in the country, and a well-established all-through school for ages 4–18, we’re seeking individuals who share our values and want to help shape the future of our thriving community.

We’re especially interested in people with experience in:

  • Finance or accountancy
  • Safeguarding young people
  • Special educational needs and disabilities (SEND)

No previous governance experience? No problem—full training and support are provided.

Commitment: 1–2 evening meetings per term + one half-day school visit per term

This is a rewarding opportunity to:

  • Support children’s education
  • Contribute to your local community
  • Develop strategic and leadership skills

We welcome applicants from all backgrounds and particularly encourage applications from under-represented groups.

If you are interested, please contact Mrs S Wallace-Abbott at swo@st-peters.bournemouth.sch.uk with your details and a short note on why you’d like to be a St Peter's Governor.
