Why not stay?

The Teachers’ Pension Scheme offers many benefits to its members.

• Ill health cover to protect you and your loved ones if you’re unable to work
• A pension based on your salary and service rather than investments, so there will be no nasty surprises when you come to retirement
• The flexibility to retire from age 55
• Income Tax relief on your contributions
• The ability to manage your pension online in a way that suits you.

Take a look at our factsheet (PDF, 53 KB) for more information about the benefits of your teacher's pension.
