Shownotes

Neil Collins has over 30 years’ experience working in the software and edtech sector. After studying Engineering at Cambridge, he went on to a 20-year career in telecoms software in the UK and US before co-founding GovernorHub in 2012. 

When GovernorHub was acquired by The Key in 2020, Neil took over the governance business unit in the wider business which also includes Key for School Governors. Between them, GovernorHub and The Key for School Governors are used by nearly half the schools in England.

Outside work, Neil lives in Norfolk with his wife and grown-up family. He has been a long-standing governor and trustee and is currently the Chair of Trustees at Enrich Learning Trust – a medium-sized multi-academy trust in Norfolk.

 

"Good governance is at the heart of any good school and any good community needs a good school. That is why governance is so important to get right if we want to make our children’s lives better." Neil Collins
