In 1978, Hutchings took the union into a merger with the Association of Assistant Mistresses, forming the Assistant Masters and Mistresses Association, and he served as joint general secretary for the first few months. He then stood down, becoming chair of the executive of the Associated Examining Board. In 1983, he became vice-president of NFER, and he remained involved with the Associated Board, latterly as a vice president. (en)
