Question to the Department for Education:
To ask the Secretary of State for Education, whether there has been a delay in the TBAP Multi-Academy Trust making contributions to the pension schemes of its employees.
The Education and Skills Funding Agency (ESFA) is aware of historical delays in payment of TBAP Trust’s pension contributions due to poor financial management and controls. The ESFA has intervened and in August 2018, issued the trust with a financial notice to improve. We have been informed that all pension payments are now up to date.
