Consultation description

We’re seeking views on the Department for Education’s (DfE) proposal to support certain education institutions with the increase to the Teachers’ Pension Scheme (TPS) in 2019 to 2020.

DfE’s proposal is to fund:

• schools that receive public funding
• further education colleges and other public-funded training organisations

The department would like to use this consultation to understand the impact on these institutions, and on other affected institutions, and welcomes responses from:

• TPS employers
• teachers and other staff
• sector bodies

We have added 2 questions to the respondent background section to help us better understand your responses.
