We’re looking for an experienced leader who can bring that community together, build on the school’s progress and continue to inspire its pupils and staff.

We’re looking for people who care about children and their communities to join our schools' Local Trust Committees.

You may know this role as ‘Governor’, but it’s essentially the same opportunity under a new name. In this video, our Chair of Trustees, Claire Heald, shares more about the qualities that make someone a great LTC member.

You don’t need to work in education to get involved. We’re simply looking for people who bring good judgement, curiosity, and a genuine commitment to supporting schools and their wider communities.

We're looking for people who want to make a meaningful contribution to their local community by joining one of our Local Trust Committees across our schools in Cambridgeshire, Suffolk & Norfolk.

You may know this role as 'Governor', but as our CEO Lynsey Holzer explains in this video, we’re evolving how governance works at ALT to better support our schools and their communities.

This is a unique opportunity to work alongside school leaders, contribute to strategic decision-making, and play a part in shaping the future of education in your community.

We’re looking for people who are passionate about their communities to join our Local Trust Committees in ALT schools across East Anglia.

If you’ve ever considered becoming a school Governor, this is basically the same role, just with a new name! In this video, one of our Trustees, Toni Kittle, explains a little bit more about why we've moved on from using the term 'Governor' and why these roles matter so much.

You don't need to work in education to get involved. We’re just looking for people who care about children, value different perspectives, and want to help shape the future of their communities.
