With effect from 1 September 2008, Kent's Local Government Pension Department clarified the employer's responsibilities and as a result the Pensions team no longer undertake certain administrative tasks relating to employees in schools. This has now resulted in both SPS and schools taking on this additional work, but it will only apply to those staff in your school who are members of the LGPS.
In line with these changes the LGPS Department have revised their manual, adapting it specifically for schools and it is now available via their website.
It has been divided into sections relating to specific issues for ease of use and also includes all the letters and forms that you may need.
However, if you have a Silver, Gold or Platinum contract with SPS you should first consult our matrices before undertaking any additional paperwork.
