TPS Teachers Pension Scheme: can you help me understand faster accrual vs additional pension ?

I've not heard of salary sacrifice in an educational setting (at least not in England); how common is it? I know it occurs in other forms of employment but nobody I know in the teaching sector seems familiar with it.

TPS and USS (universities) are both salary sacrifice. So SS is the norm. I suspect people might not be familiar as with DB schemes, people are generally less aware of the finer details.zagubov said:I've not heard of salary sacrifice in an educational setting (at least not in England); how common is it?

Yes, I am in the USS and my contributions (or more accurately my employer contributions) to both the DB and DC parts of the scheme are definitely Salary Sacrifice1
