Regulation 5 amends regulation 4 of the 1989 Regulations to widen the categories of persons who can be “eligible teachers” for the purposes of Parts III to V of those Regulations. A person in part–time employment who would have completed a qualifying period (within the meaning of regulation E3 of the Teachers' Superannuation (Consolidation) Regulations 1988 (“the Superannuation Regulations”)) had he elected under regulation B2 of those Regulations for his employment to be treated as pensionable employment is now capable of being an “eligible teacher”. A person must be an “eligible teacher” if he is to be eligible for compensation for premature retirement under the 1989 Regulations. Certain consequential amendments are made to the 1989 Regulations to bring them into line with the Superannuation Regulations as amended. Other consequential amendments are made to reflect the introduction of grant–maintained special schools, new methods of incorporation for the governing bodies of grant–maintained schools and recent changes that have taken place within the further and higher education sectors. In particular, a new category H is introduced for relevant employment at an institution within the further education sector. --- Source: https://www.legislation.gov.uk/uksi/1994/1059 (the official version) Page: https://openlegislation.uk/teachers-compensation-for-redundancy-and-premature-retirement-amendment-regulations-1994 Contains public sector information licensed under the Open Government Licence v3.0.
