Are you passionate about creating safe, supportive environments where young people can learn and thrive? Do you have the expertise to guide a Trust in maintaining high standards of inclusion? As a SEND and Inclusion Trustee, you’ll play a crucial strategic role in ensuring that every school within our Trust is a secure place for pupils and staff to flourish.

This role is your opportunity to make a Trust-wide impact, shaping the systems, cultures, and decisions that help our young people to thrive every single day.

As a Trustee, you will:

Champion a Culture of Inclusion:Use your insight, expertise, or lived experience to shape the Trust’s policies, practices, and strategic priorities, ensuring SEND and inclusion are central to every decision we make.

Strengthen Provision & Assurance:Provide oversight of statutory SEND responsibilities, inclusive practice, safeguarding links, and the effectiveness of support for pupils with additional needs ensuring the Trust meets its duties confidently and compassionately.

Support and Constructively Challenge:Offer informed, evidence‑based challenge to senior leaders, ensuring SEND provision is high‑quality, well‑resourced, and continuously improving. Help the Board ask the right questions to drive equitable outcomes.

Promote Wellbeing & Belonging:Contribute to strategic discussions about mental health, behaviour, attendance, and pastoral support, ensuring our schools create environments where every learner feels safe, included, and able to succeed.

Collaborate at Board Level:Work with fellow Trustees to embed inclusion throughout Trust strategy, resource allocation, curriculum design, professional development, and community engagement.

Why Become a SEND & Inclusion Trustee?

Meaningful, Purpose‑Driven Impact:Help shape inclusive practice across multiple schools, improving life chances for children with SEND and strengthening support for families and staff.

Opportunities for Growth:Develop your leadership, governance, and strategic skills while contributing to the Trust’s long‑term improvement.

Real Community Contribution:Give back in a role that champions equity, dignity, and opportunity for all children.

If you’re ready to help shape an inclusive, supportive, and aspirational educational environment across our Trust, we’d love to hear from you.
