This post is also suitable for hybrid working, with the administrative work outside of meetings able to be undertaken from home. Although hours are to be worked flexibly, the vast majority of work will take place in term time (around the six annual AGC meetings per school). For comparison purposes, the 97 hours per year average out to about 2.5 hours/week in term time.
