The Department is running a public consultation to gather further evidence on the impact of these changes on higher education institutions and independent schools before finalising funding arrangements for 2019-20. Our initial proposal is based on the fact that state schools and further education institutions are most directly funded by government grants. Our analysis on each sector (state schools, further education, higher education and independent schools) also suggests that these institutions are most exposed to the increase in employer pension contributions, and funding was therefore prioritised on this basis.<\/p>"}

Department officials have discussed the changes to the Teachers\u2019 Pension Scheme with all education trade unions and a number of employer representatives. Discussions with these groups will continue through the Teachers\u2019 Pension Scheme Advisory Board.<\/p>
<\/p>
The Department is also launching a consultation in early 2019 to seek views on the impact of the changes to employer contribution costs on state-funded schools, independent schools, further education (FE) colleges and other public-funded training organisations, and universities and other Higher Education institutions (HEI) in the Teachers\u2019 Pension Scheme, including which sectors should receive additional funding from the Government. Once the consultation has closed, the Department will make an assessment on the viability of the scheme and the number of institutions participating in the scheme.<\/p>
<\/p>
The Department estimates the total cost of increased employer contributions into the Teachers\u2019 Pension Scheme to be £1.1 billion in 2019-20. This is broken down as follows: £830 million for state-funded schools, £110 million for Independent schools, £80 million for the further education sector, and £80 million for affected universities and other HEIs.<\/p>"}
