Get Hackney Governing 
We are  re-launching this project to get Hackney Governing. Following on from our pilot, many of the young governors have remained on boards and have now taken on responsibilities. We believe that it is important to continue to embed the voice and experience of young people into the governance of our schools.

The 'Get Hackney Governing' project aims to support young adults to fulfil their role as a governor on the school board. It offers an incredible experience to participate in strategic governance and leadership, develop skills, connect with experienced professionals and benefit from the shared learning and support of a peer to peer network.

Find out more about governance here.

We are delighted that you are interested to participate in this project, which is a voluntary role. Applications are open to people between the age of 18 to 30 years and we are specifically seeking people with a strong connection to the borough, through one or more of the following:
- Grew up in Hackney / still living in Hackney
- Attended a Hackney school
- Work in Hackney
- Other (e.g. part of a Hackney community / volunteer group)

You may prefer to share your answers by sending us a video or voice recording, rather than writing. If so, please email governorservices@hackney.gov.uk and indicate that in this application form by typing in 'video sent'.

The closing date for this application is midnight on Thursday 13 June 2024.

Successful applicants will be offered a free place at our Governors' Conference on Thursday 27 June 2024, 4.30 - 7.30pm.

There will be a selection activity before the Summer Holidays.
