Youth About Business teaches business to high school students through hosting a series of business competitions. For a week, students will work in teams of 4-5 and assume the roles of the Executive Management of a public company to perform a M&A transaction.

Many students have very limited exposure to the business world, so students appreciate the team advisors for helping them understand these very complex cases. Each team advisor will cover a specific part of the transaction process to help demystify business and prepare students for their transactions.

The camp is both an educational opportunity and a competition for the students. Advisors act as both “paid” consultant and teachers during their experience. You should approach your role as advisor as if you are advising a client on the pros and cons of a deal.


The research session volunteers will help a team of 4-5 high school students understand how to conduct research on a public company. In addition to helping students with their research, volunteers will walk students through a SWOT analysis and other tools to frame their company exploration. (Session prep materials provided)

Examples of research topics to explore:
• What is the primary business? In what industry would you classify the business?
• What is the size of the company? (by sales, by employees, by market cap)
• Who are the largest competitors?
• How to create a SWOT Analysis and other frameworks

At the end of the session, students should be able to speak to the basics of their company. They will also have a focused list of items to research on their own.

Do you want to have an impact of education and improve outcomes for all children?

Governors for Schools is an education charity that engages and supports volunteers to become school governors. We have schools across England and Wales that are looking for skilled volunteers and we will provide the support to help you thrive in the role.

Who are Governors for Schools?
Governors for Schools operates to improve educational standards and ensure all children and young people have the chance to realise their full potential.

We believe the key to improving school performance is effective governance. By finding, nurturing and supporting a committed network of governors, we drive positive systematic change that benefits each and every student, regardless of their background.

What’s involved?
There are governor vacancies across England and Wales. Some schools are also looking for 'remote' governors who don't need to live near the school they support.

Governors volunteer at board level to set the strategic vision for their school. This involves constructively challenging current processes, using your unique skills to support senior leaders, and overseeing school finances. You’ll be involved in areas such as monitoring, budget management, and data analysis.

As well as putting your expertise to good use, you’ll have the opportunity to develop your professional skills. Ultimately, you’ll work towards facilitating the delivery of a broad and exciting curriculum and oversee wellbeing and inclusion initiatives.

Governance represents a fantastic opportunity to develop yourself while making a real impact on the education of children and young people.

Governors work collaboratively with the headteacher and other members of the board, including parents and school staff.

In most schools, full board meetings are held termly, as are committee meetings. Many governors will sit on a committee linked to their expertise or interests, such as teaching and learning or finance and resources.

Governors usually support schools for a period of four years and with an estimated time commitment of 7 hours per month, to include attending meetings, reading papers, attending training and occasional visits to school.

Who can be a governor?
The most important part of being a governor is the ability to ask questions, provide support and have the best interests of the school at heart. You don't have to be a parent or have experience in education to become a governor. A wide range of skills are sought to support the board including finance, HR and data analysis.

Boards also need governors with diverse backgrounds and lived experience, so that all perspectives can be considered.

Professional experience is welcomed as is community insight and experience of working collaboratively.

You need to be aged 18 or above, and there are certain criminal convictions that would exclude you from the role. A Disclosure and Barring Service check will be carried out by the school.

What’s the process?
You can find out more about the school governor role by attending one of our recruitment webinars.

You can complete your online profile on the website, including your motivation to take on the role, your skills and your school preferences. Your regional Partnership Manager will then look at vacancies that match your requirements. Once a school is identified, you will have the opportunity to discuss the role with them in more detail, visit the school, and observe a meeting. If appointed, a DBS check will take place and, in some cases, the school will seek references.

Ongoing support
Governors for Schools isn’t just a matching service. We want to help you thrive in your role through bespoke and ongoing support. We provide eLearning and monthly webinars covering a variety of topics to increase your knowledge of the education sector and governance. You’ll also have access to The Key for School Governors, an information hub designed to show new governors the ropes and offer a useful point of reference for existing governors.
