This was our biggest and most challenging Roadshow yet and saw approximately 400 staff attend for a one to one session with a member of the Pensions Team and also representatives from the Prudential. Despite the length and scale of the Roadshow it ran very smoothly and we received very posi- tive feedback from many of the attendees. Hambleton District Council A further Roadshow was held in September 2007 for Hambleton District Council staff. This was a one day Roadshow (as most of our Roadshows are) and approximately 40 staff took the opportunity to talk to the Pensions Team and the Prudential about their own personal circumstances. For those who could not attend the one to one sessions or who just wanted a general overview we delivered 2 presentations over the lunch period covering topics such as the New Look LGPS from 1 April 2008, calculation of retirement benefits and the Rule of 85. There were approximately 100 attendees. Information Sessions Since April 2007 we have also held ‘one to one’ sessions for a large number of pension scheme members. These are conducted in a similar vein to the Roadshows but tend to be on a smaller less formal basis. Since April 2007 we have visited the following sites: North York Moors National Park Balfour Beatty Ashfield Residential Home North Yorkshire Fire & Rescue Larpool Lane in Whitby (NYCC Adult & Community Services) Tadcaster Grammar School (Non Teaching staff) Graham School (Non Teaching staff) Bilton Registration Service (NYCC) George Pindar School (Non Teaching staff) Yorkshire Coast Homes If you would like to arrange for the Pensions Team to visit your workplace, please contact Karen Scott on (01609) 532340. Please note that there must be at least 10 attendees. Overall, the information sessions have been very well received and have provided scheme members with an ideal opportunity to talk to the Pension Team about their own personal circumstances Many thanks to NYCC and Hambleton District Council for hosting the events. 2 New Look Local Government Pension Scheme from 1 April 2008 The LGPS is changing from 1 April 2008. The good news is that the Scheme continues to be a final salary scheme with the calculation of benefits linked to pensionable pay and some improvements and flexibilities have been introduced. All existing members move to the new scheme from 1 April 2008. The main changes are summarised in the following sections. Cost of Pension Benefits How much will I pay? The contributions which Scheme members pay into the LGPS have been fixed for many years and have not increased even though the amount which the Scheme employers have needed to pay has increased. You will have been paying either 6% or 5% (see separate information on page 4 if you are currently paying 5%) of your pensionable pay into the LGPS. From 1 April 2008 the amount you pay will be linked to the rate of pensionable pay which you receive and this will result in either a decrease or an increase in the amount you pay in pension contributions. The table below details the range of pensionable pay and the bands of contributions. Band Range* Contribution Rate 1 £0 - £12,000 5.5% 2 > £12,000 - £14,000 5.8% 3 > £14,000 - £18,000 5.9% 4 > £18,000 - £30,000 6.5% 5 > £30,000 - £40,000 6.8% 6 > £40,000 - £75,000 7.2% 7 > £75,000 7.5% * The figures in the ‘Range’ column of the table will increase in April each year by the rise in the Retail Prices Index cont / 3 New Look Local Government Pension Scheme from 1 April 2008 (cont) Cost of Pension Benefits (cont) Your employer will set the contribution rate you should pay based on the rate of pensionable pay you will be receiving on 1 April 2008. If you are part-time your rate of pay will be uprated to the amount you would be receiving if you were working full-time. Your employer will also decide whether there are any regular contractual extra payments which should be included in the rate of pensionable pay when setting the contribution rate. The employer will decide how often the contribution rate is changed if your pensionable pay increases or decreases. For example, this could be done once a year at 1 April or could be done each time you have a contractual change in their employment. Employees paying 5% in contributions Employees who were in a ‘manual worker’ post on 31 March 1998 have continued to pay the 5% contribution rate from 1 April 1998 (when the rate became a standard 6% for all). It has been decided to increase the contribution rate for those existing manual workers who pay contributions at the protected 5% contribution rate on a phased basis, bringing their contribution rate into line with all other Scheme members from 1st April 2011. This will be done by increasing the rate for these members to 5.25% in 2008/09; 5.5% in 2009/10; 6.5% in 2010/11; and then move to the bands in the table from 2011/12 onwards Therefore if you currently pay the 5% contribution rate you will pay the following rates: From 1 April 2008 - 5.25% From 1 April 2009 - 5.5% From 1 April 2010 - 6.5% (unless the rate in the standard contribution rate table is lower) Term-time workers Scheme members who work fewer than 52 weeks per year and are categorised by their employer as term-time will have their pension contribution rate based on the pay they would be receiving if they were working full-time for the number of weeks per year in that post (not uprated to 52 weeks). How much will my employer pay? The amount which your employer pays will continue to be assessed every 3 years through calculations done by the Fund Actuary. This varies depending on the cost of providing pension benefits. The amount which the employers and employees will pay in pension contributions in future will continue to be looked at by a Policy Review Group which has been set up by the Central Government Department, Communities and Local Government. This Group will look at a number of factors which affect the cost of pension benefits and a decision will be made on whether employee pension contributions should increase. A system is to be agreed to review the cost of the Scheme by 31st March 2009 and this will be known as a ‘cost sharing mechanism’. cont / 4 New Look Local Government Pension Scheme from 1 April 2008 (cont) Building up Benefits How will my benefits build up in the new Scheme? New employees must have a contract of employment of more than 3 months duration in order to be entitled to join the Scheme. Existing employees will move to the new Scheme on 1 April 2008. All Scheme members will build up benefits in the same way from 1 April 2008. Under the new scheme a pension of 1/60th of final pay is built up for each year of membership in the Scheme after 31st March 2008. There is no automatic lump sum. However, it will still be possible to take a tax free lump sum ‘retirement grant’ by giving up some of the annual pension. Each £1 of annual pension will provide £12 of lump sum retirement grant. It is possible to take a maximum lump sum which represents 25% of the capital value of benefits. The calculation of benefits from the LGPS will therefore be split as follows: Service up to 31 March 2008 Service from 1 April 2008 Annual Pension Annual Pension Service x 1/80 x Final Pay + Service x 1/60 x Final Pay and Lump Sum Retirement Grant Service x 3/80 x Final Pay Final Pay The pay figure used in the calculation of pension benefits is known as ‘final pay’.

  • 12:45, Friday 18Th December 2020 Dear
    12:45, Friday 18th December 2020 Dear parents, carers (and students) Coronavirus testing for secondary schools and the arrangements for week commencing Monday 4th January ​ 2021 I am sure you have been following the media over the last 24 hours with reference to the above. I thought it important to write to you before we break up for the Christmas holiday to give you an outline of our operational plan for the week beginning Monday 4th January 2021. This will allow families to plan arrangements for this week. It is likely that we will also communicate with families via the school website, email and Facebook over the Christmas break with further details if necessary. We will endeavour to keep this communication to a minimum. Coronavirus testing in schools This initiative has only very recently been announced to schools by the Government. In fact the national on-line introduction to the scheme for school leaders is scheduled for this afternoon. We intend to provide families with details of the arrangements for any testing to be carried out, with your consent, in due course. The information from the Government is evolving by the hour and I am unable to share any further details at this time. Early communications from North Yorkshire County Council indicate that planning for Coronavirus testing will commence in early January 2021 and may not impact on the school during the week beginning Monday 4th January 2021. Arrangements for the week beginning Monday 4th January 2021 All schools are working in different contexts and government guidance published yesterday is intended to guide school leaders’ decisions about how best to meet the new expectations.
