What is the difference between pensionable and reckonable service?
A. Pensionable service is how we describe, in our literature, service which is pensionable in the Teachers’ Pension Scheme. Reckonable service is specifically service which counts in the calculation of pension benefits. For example, a scheme member may be in pensionable service, or employment, for a year but only be credited with half a year’s reckonable service because she is on a part-time contract.
