Description

This episode of Careerwise is all about money. Negotiations taking place behind closed doors have reversed the plan for existing teachers to work to 65. But all new teachers, and some others, will still have to work until 65. Peter Curran hosts a discussion with two key players and old adversaries, Paul Bleasdale, Head of Pensions at the DfES and Barry Fawcett, Head of the National Union of Teachers' salaries department. We then take a longer term look at the likely evolution of teachers' pensions with contributions from Tim Boswell, Shadow Minister For Work And Pensions, and pensions expert Stephen Yeo. And whether you're about to retire, still paying off your student loan or mid way through your working life there's something in this show for you as we see three teachers at very different life stages get independent financial advice about how to maximise their financial assets.
