Following recent restructuring at the Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC) several new staff have taken up roles related to the RSC's education activities

Following recent restructuring at the Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC) and the creation of its new Science, Education and Industry (SEI) directorate, several new staff have taken up roles related to the RSC's education activities. Mario Moustras, the RSC's industry manager, will double as acting manager for education while covering for maternity leave. Ellen Weavers, previously head of chemistry at King's School, Rochester, will liaise with government and its agencies on issues and policy relating to science education in schools and colleges and lead the development of curriculum materials to support the teaching of chemistry in schools and colleges. Robert Bowles, who since its launch in 2007 has managed ChemNet, the RSC's network for 16-18-year old students, joins Weavers in the schools and colleges team and is responsible for enhancement and enrichment activities and careers-related support.
