Pension Re-Enrolment Process

KCC is required by law to automatically re-enrol all qualifying staff including those in KCC maintained schools into the pension scheme every three years.

KCC’s next re-enrolment date is the 1^st of June 2025. Your school will be writing to those workers effected, to advise how the re-enrolment regulations affect you.

Qualifying criteria:

• You earn over £192 per week, or £833 per month, or £10,000 per annum
• You are aged 22 or over and
• You are under state pension age

You can opt out of the pension scheme if you want to, but if you stay in you will have your own personal pension when you retire. Your pension will belong to you, even if you leave us in the future. If you choose to opt out, you must complete an opt-out form.

Remember, your school will have to repeat the re-enrolment process of signing you up, every 3 years, and you will have the chance to opt out each time.
