VOLUNTARY POSITIONS
- Trustee vacancies – vacancy for Safeguarding Oversight
We are currently seeking a trustee, ideally someone who already has some experience of safeguarding in schools, to take on the role of Trustee with oversight for Safeguarding. The trustee for safeguarding is required to undertake some local authority training once in post, that is specific to enabling the person to be successful in this role.
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.
If you are interested in the role of becoming the safeguarding trustee for Norwich Steiner School, or if you have previous experience of fulfilling a trustee role in a charity and could contribute to enriching the trustee body with your skills, please contact the school.
Applications for volunteer positions listed above will be considered as they are received.
