Benefits of working with us

You can always opt out of your relevant pension scheme. If you wish to opt out of the pension scheme you will need to obtain an opt out form from the relevant pension provider’s website.

The College is registered with Computershare Voucher Services to offer all eligible working parents the opportunity to save money on all types of registered childcare by exchanging a proportion of your monthly salary (subject to a maximum stipulated by the government) for childcare vouchers. Participating in the voucher scheme will save you money, as the exchanged proportion of your salary is exempt from tax and national insurance contributions.
