ISEAL is looking for an experienced events professional to manage a range of in person and virtual events for its global stakeholder base. This is an exciting role for someone with a strong track record in organising events of differing sizes for in-person, online, and hybrid audiences, and who is interested in sustainability. Events are a vital part of ISEAL s work to communicate with, influence, and engage our key stakeholder groups, including policy makers, multilateral organisations, donors, companies, NGOs, producers, and, of course, ISEAL s own members. To support these aims, ISEAL hosts at least one major public forum, conference or symposium each year. In 2026, this will be a Global Sustainability Symposium and will take place in Accra, Ghana in June with around 200-300 participants.

SGOSS - Governors for Schools
Barrow-in-furness, Cumbria
Furness Education Trust (FET) is a seven-school trust based in Barrow-in-Furness. The trust originally grew out of Furness Academy and now includes two secondary schools and five primary schools. All academies in the trust are rated 'Good' or 'Outstanding,' except for Walney School, which joined the trust in January 2025 with a 'Requires Improvement' judgement. Walney School was previously part of another multi-academy trust (MAT), and when that MAT closed, the Department for Education (DfE) asked FET to take over the school due to the trust's capacity to provide support. While Furness Academy is relatively large and oversubscribed, Walney School is smaller, with room to expand and accommodate more pupils. The trust is actively working to encourage increased pupil intake at Walney. As the two secondary schools are less than three miles apart, there is an opportunity to attract more students to Walney, particularly as it moves onto a firm trajectory of improvement. FET also supports small rural primary schools with fewer than 90 pupils and mixed-age classes. The trust firmly believes that these schools play a vital role in their communities and is committed to maintaining their quality and sustainability. Furness Education Trust benefits from the sponsorship and active support of BAE Systems, with several of its trustees holding senior roles within the organisation. The trust is also exploring innovative curriculum opportunities at Walney School, particularly in modern engineering and digital skills, to align with the region's workforce needs. Additionally, FET is fostering collaboration with George Hastwell School, a neighbouring special school, reinforcing its commitment to regional partnerships and inclusive education. Furness Education Trust is seeking two experienced educational professionals with expertise in primary and/or secondary education to join its board. Both appointees will serve on the Quality of Education & Standards Committee, with the expectation that one may take on the role of committee chair following the planned departure of the current chair.

Furness Education Trust (FET) is a seven-school trust based in Barrow-in-Furness. The trust originally grew out of Furness Academy and now includes two secondary schools and five primary schools. All academies in the trust are rated 'Good' or 'Outstanding,' except for Walney School, which joined the trust in January 2025 with a 'Requires Improvement' judgement. Walney School was previously part of another multi-academy trust (MAT), and when that MAT closed, the Department for Education (DfE) asked FET to take over the school due to the trust's capacity to provide support. While Furness Academy is relatively large and oversubscribed, Walney School is smaller, with room to expand and accommodate more pupils. The trust is actively working to encourage increased pupil intake at Walney. As the two secondary schools are less than three miles apart, there is an opportunity to attract more students to Walney, particularly as it moves onto a firm trajectory of improvement. FET also supports small rural primary schools with fewer than 90 pupils and mixed-age classes. The trust firmly believes that these schools play a vital role in their communities and is committed to maintaining their quality and sustainability. Furness Education Trust benefits from the sponsorship and active support of BAE Systems, with several of its trustees holding senior roles within the organisation. The trust is also exploring innovative curriculum opportunities at Walney School, particularly in modern engineering and digital skills, to align with the region's workforce needs. Additionally, FET is fostering collaboration with George Hastwell School, a neighbouring special school, reinforcing its commitment to regional partnerships and inclusive education.
