Leaving my permanent Primary teaching post.

    Hi all,

    Can anyone tell me how leaving a permanent teaching post at primary level, will affect pension etc. I have over 20 years service, starting pre 2004.

    For example, are there any consequences (especially negative)? My intention would be to continue in a new school either permanently or just do casual subbing...

    Has anyone else done this?

    Thanks

    This has nothing to do with boards.ie. Moved to a forum that's related to the topic instead.

    I've heard of people who have done this. It's grand as long as you start working again. If there's a 26 week break you'll be put on the new pension scheme (where you're unemployed rather than on a career break, secondment etc). Casual subbing would sort that though. I suppose for pension it's being added on a pro rata basis? I'd advise proper financial advice for that.

    Yes definitely get advice from a union or pension provider that specialises in education (Like PSRA or Cornmarket... or both!).

    Bring kicked into a new pension scheme will cost you
