Background. Dept going on maternity after half term. School would like to fill the post internally.
We are a school on a split site, currently in the process of amalgamation, so the dept gets ppa plus a day and a half management time when the headteacher isn't on site. This is a bonus as I know that lots of schools don't give their depts much time out of class to do the dept duties.
I'm tempted to apply, but I don't know whether to. I'm part time and it would mean going full time (and putting my DDs into after school club on the days I currently pick them up from school.)
Plus, amalgamation brings its own issues, and we will be inspected not that long after we have become one school.
I've been told by previous headteachers that I work for that I'd be a good dept, and it sounds like an exciting opportunity.
I'm wondering if anyone else has done the job and regretted it, or loved it?
