Telford & Wrekin Council,
Could you help shape the future of our federation?
Wrockwardine Wood Infant School and Oakengates Nursery Federation is seeking two committed people to join our Governing Board as co-opted governors. You do not need to work in education or have previous governance experience. We are looking for people who care about children’s education and can bring independent thinking, useful skills, and constructive challenge.
What governors do
The Governing Board works collectively to:
- Set and maintain the vision, ethos, and strategic direction of the federation;
- Hold the Executive Headteacher to account for the educational performance of the schools; and
- Oversee the sound, proper, and effective use of the federation’s financial resources.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
What we are looking for
We welcome interest from people from a wide range of backgrounds. Experience in finance, business, human resources, law, health and safety, safeguarding, SEND, early years, premises, community work, or strategic leadership would be particularly useful, but is not essential.
Governors need to be able to prepare for and attend meetings, undertake training, take part in monitoring visits, maintain confidentiality, and act in the best interests of the federation. Full induction, training, and ongoing support will be provided.

If you are interested in becoming a school governor, please contact Mrs. Sara Griffiths, School Business Manager, by telephoning 01952 387860 or emailing sara.griffiths2@taw.org.uk to request a governor information and application pack by:
