I have dealt with your request for data under the Freedom of Information (FOI) Act 2000. You asked: …Could you please provide me with the names of all Independent Schools who have to date notified Teachers’ Pensions of their intention to withdraw from the Teachers’ Pension Scheme (TPS). Following clarification of the timeframe for which the data is required, the current list of independent schools that have given formal notification to leave the TPS since 1 September 2018 is set out in the annex. The table contains the names of the schools and each school’s departmental establishment code which is the code used by both the department and Teachers’ Pensions (TP) in administering the TPS on behalf of the department. You can use the establishment code to find information about the schools, including their location and contact details at https://get-information- schools.service.gov.uk/. You further clarified your request to provide the names of the schools who “are in the course of consultation with staff”. Any staff consultation would precede the notification to TP that they intend to leave the scheme. Schools are not required to notify either TP or the department about the details and timing of any consultation they may be undertaking, therefore the department does not hold this information.
