    Pension is 6.5% or something.

    Sorry, not where I'm coming from. Is it a defined benefit scheme and are you due to retire in near future - if so you may wish to consider protecting the benefit. If this is someway off, disregard that.

    Most of these schemes(I think inc teachers) going part time makes little difference you just accumulate less service.

    the pensions are calculated on full time equivilance.

    Most public sector defined benefit schemes are final salary based and reflect on best earning of (for instance) 3 - 5 years prior to retirement.

    ETA: Only new entrants to some recent schemes will find themselves restricted to a pension based on career average.
