VOLUNTARY POSITIONS
- Trustee vacancies
We are always open to the possibility of recruiting new trustees. Trustees will generally be expected to have skills and experience in areas such as Safeguarding, Special Educational Needs, Health and Safety, Finance and Personnel. This is not an exclusive list of skills, but outlines some of the core ones required in a school governance team.
Trustees currently meet around once per half term. Meetings are generally during the daytime, although existing trustees would be able to meet in the evenings instead if necessary.
Norwich Steiner School does not generally appoint parents or close relatives onto its trustee body, to avoid potential conflicts of interest which may otherwise arise; however, we may exceptionally consider doing so for candidates who demonstrate proven ability in the skills identified above.

Applications for volunteer positions listed above will be considered as they are received, with a view to immediate appointment of suitable candidates.
