Teachers' Pension Scheme (England and Wales) resource accounts
Bibliographic record
Abstract
EmployersAny organisation in England and Wales that employs teachers can join the scheme.There were 2,268 employers participating in 2005-06 that fall into the following categories:172 Local Authorities (LAs) 435 further education institutions 90 higher education institutions 1,571 independent establishments (inc CTCs and others) Performance and PositionThe TPS account is influenced by changes in membership numbers, salary levels, mortality rates and the age profile of the scheme.Of these elements, membership numbers are likely to change from 2007, with the proposed introduction of automatic scheme membership for part-time teachers.This proposal is currently subject to consultation, but if introduced it would result in all part-time staff being automatically put in the scheme either on first appointment or when they receive a new contract of employment.Teachers would still retain the right to opt out of the scheme, as is the case with full-time members. Changes to the Teachers' Pension SchemeDuring the year the following changes were made to the Scheme.Pensions were increased by 3.1% with effect from 11 April 2005 in line with increases in the cost of living.From April 2005 the employers' contribution rate was maintained at 13.5%.The Department is currently consulting on a range of potential changes to the scheme, including increasing the normal pension age from 60 to 65 for new members, removal of the present added years arrangements, introduction of two-tier ill health retirement arrangements, introducing a cost sharing arrangement between employers and employees for future changes in the contribution rate.It is expected that the changes will be introduced in January 2007.In addition to the scheme changes the outcome of the current scheme valuation will be implemented from January 2007.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; both teacher heads agree on what is shown here.
